Maidstone United winger Alex Flisher among possible replacements for Charles Banya at Oxford City

Maidstone must decide whether to risk Alex Flisher from the start at Oxford City on Tuesday night.

There's a place up for grabs on the left with Charles Banya ruled out after suffering concussion against Basingstoke at the weekend.

The winger is home after two nights in Pembury Hospital but is set to be out of action for up to a month.

Flisher replaced Banya on Saturday but Stones don't want to rush him into starting matches after recent hamstring problems, so there could be a shirt for Bobby-Joe Taylor or Matt Bodkin.

Victory at Oxford would move United back up to second place in National League South.

Stones boss Jay Saunders said: "It’ll be a difficult one. They’re obviously a good side. We saw that when they beat us earlier in the season here.

"It’s a long journey for us on a midweek but I’m just glad we got the win on Saturday. We can go there now with a little bit of confidence and be positive.

"If we do what we’ve done in most away games this season then hopefully we’ll be OK because our away record’s not been bad, bar last week’s collapse at Havant."
