SALISBURY City boss Nick Holmes has been forced to make a change to his starting line-up for today's Blue Square Premier match at Northwich Victoria.

Matt Robinson, who suffered a hamstring injury in the 0-0 draw at home to Forest Green Rovers last week, is sidelined which means Scott Bartlett will revert to full-back with loan signing Rob Sinclair making his Whites debut in midfield.

Sinclair, who joined City from Luton Town just before the transfer window closed, links up with his Luton team mate Ed Asafu-Adjaye, who has extended his loan stay with City for an extra two months.

Up front Matt Tubbs will be looking to net his 100th goal in a Salisbury shirt, having took his career tally to 99 by scoring two in City's last away game at Northwich's fellow strugglers Stafford Rangers.

Central defender Tim Bond, who has been out of first team action since December due to a series of injuries, returns on the bench after coming through a couple of reserve team appearances unscathed.

City team: Ryan Clarke, Jon Bass, Scott Bartlett, Aaron Cook (c), Ed Asafu-Adjaye, Mike Fowler, Wayne Turk, Rob Sinclair, Marvin Brown, Matt Tubbs, Andy Sandell.

Subs: James Bittner, Tim Bond, Darrell Clarke, Liam Feeney, Robbie Matthews.
