Southend host Luton at Roots Hall on Saturday afternoon on the back of the news that full-back Che Wilson's season is over due to injury.The Shrimpers will now be without Wilson's services for the remainder of the season after he was forced to undergo surgery on a troublesome Achilles injury this week.

On-loan Reading midfielder Hal Robson-Kanu has recovered from a hamstring strain and should be available after returning to training on Monday.
