Oxford City's ex-Aston Villa striker Stuart Lewis is set to lead their attack in Tuesday's home game with Barking in Ryman League Division 1 North.
Lewis scored on his debut in Saturday's 1-1 derby draw with Thame United, having netted in his two appearances for City Reserves.
City boss Paul Lee said: "Maybe he is the answer to our scoring problems. Although he's not fully match fit, he did well considering it was his first full league game in eight months.
"He's definitely in the squad, though I've got a few options with Jamie Charles and Mark Simms.
"I felt we created a lot of chances, but we weren't clinical enough in front of goal. We need to find that killer touch. "
City will again be without Mitchell (ankle) and Matty Whitehead, who is struggling with a groin injury.
