KIDDERMINSTER Harriers casualty list is starting to shorten as manager Jan Mol-by prepares his side for tomorrow's Nat-ionwide Conference clash against high-riding Yeovil at Aggborough (3.0).

Expected to return are defender Steve Pope and midfielder Rene Pet-ersen.

Both missed Tuesday nig-ht's 1-0 Nationwide Macmillan Trophy defeat at Altrincham.

Pope has been suffering from Achilles tendon trouble while Petersen has recovered from a virus.

Defender Phil King could also come into contention for a place in the squad following a calf injury.

The most doubtful starter is full-back Scott Stamps who is strugging to overcome a groin problem.

Taylor is still on the sidelines following an ankle operation.

Because of the injury uncertainties Molby has named an 18-strong squad from which he will make his final selection.

He is expecting another tough game tomorrow against a Yeovil side who have made a good start to the season and are currently in third place in the table.

Molby said: "It's going to be another big game for us. Yeovil have started well and we need to get back to winning ways after losing our last two matches.

"I was very disappointed with our defeat at Hayes last Saturday.

"We created enough chan-ces to have won the game. We are creating chances, but we're just not putting them away.

"I think it will be another competitive game for us to-morrow played at a high tem-po."

Molby, meanwhile, has missed out on capturing former Coventry and Wimbledon defender Andy Pearce who has signed a two-year contract for Aldershot.
