Malpas is looking to Peacock to lead the Swindon forward line

Swindon boss Maurice Malpas says there is a chance injured striker Lee Peacock could be fit for the new season.

Malpas told BBC Radio Swindon that the club are being cautious with Peacock's Achilles injury in the hope that he could be ready.

"It's important now he gets time on the training ground and then match time. Lee will just do one session a day.

"Hopefully he can be involved in some part [in the first league fixture] against Tranmere," said Malpas.

Swindon are hoping the majority of their injured players will be available for the start of the League One campaign.

Barry Corr sees a specialist about his shoulder problem on Monday as he waits for the all-clear to resume full-contact training.

Craig Easton has been pencilled in to face Cardiff on Tuesday as he continues his recovery from an ankle problem.
