Cedwyn Scott and Junior Morias set to boost Notts County's firepower in final push for promotion

Luke Williams gave a positive injury update on Notts County's Cedwyn Scott and Junior Morias before their Easter weekend games against Wealdstone and Wrexham. Scott has been absent for over two months, having suffered an injury during their win over Barnet. He later sustained another setback on his return to the first team, keeping him out since early February. Meanwhile, Morias has not played since arriving from Dagenham and Redbridge due to a slight injury problem.

The absence of both players highlights the significance of Macaulay Langstaff, the National League's top scorer, who has netted 14 times in his last ten matches, including six consecutive games leading up to their game against Stuart Maynard's team. Langstaff broke a club record for the most goals in a league season away to Altrincham.

However, with two games in four days, including a potential title-deciding match at the Racecourse Ground, the Notts head coach provided a positive update on both Scott and Morias ahead of the final five games of the season.

"Of course, they will be important because, at the moment, Luke Williams told the Nottingham Post.

"My anxiety is very high because Macaulay is on the pitch every minute - and as you know if he does the business he normally comes off. 

"I think he is very relieved to be picking up more minutes but of course as a head coach, you always worry about having the reinforcements and firepower to be able to sustain anything that might come our way.

"It's great news to see both these guys out on the pitch and fully training with the squad.

"We have a good idea of their conditioning, so it's great news for this period of the season, now it is going to be very important for us to have a healthy squad."
