STRIKER Steve Kabba, who ended an eight-match goal drought with the second in Burton Albion's 2-0 win at Aldershot Town last week, is a doubt for tomorrow's home game against Cheltenham Town after contracting flu-like symptoms.

"There's been a bit of a bug going through us this week. Richard Walker, Kevin Poole and Gary Rowett have had it and Kabs started to feel ropey," said manager Paul Peschisolido.

He will make a late decision on Kabba but Walker is likely to have shaken off the bug in time to take his place in the squad.

Also returning to the squad is left-back Aaron Webster, who has had a back strain. Webster trained fully yesterday.

Burton have taken the decision not to risk an injection to cure right-back Richard Jackson's calf and back problem.

"We feel seven to 10 days' rest to let it settle naturally is a better option than an injection and then we'll aim to ease him back in," said Peschisolido.

Keith Gilroy, sent off for the reserves last week, has been handed a three-match suspension. He would have been available tomorrow, however, had he not been suffering from a back spasm.
