CHERRIES boss Eddie Howe revealed Junior Stanislas could make his return during Tuesday’s Hampshire Senior Cup clash with Eastleigh.
The winger has been out of action since March with a serious knee injury, sustained during a 2-2 draw at Watford.
He will not be involved in tomorrow’s Premier League fixture against Leicester, but the manager did not rule out the possibility of the 28-year-old featuring against the Spitfires.
He told the Daily Echo: “Depending how he goes between now and then we may look to get him some match time.”
The venue of the second-round tie has been switched to Vitality Stadium (7.45pm).
