ORIENT defender Ben Chorley is due to serve a one-match suspension when the O's host Yeovil Town on Tuesday night.
The former Tranmere centre back picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in Orient's last outing - a December 28 defeat to Southend United.
An accumulation of five bookings carries an automatic one-game ban, and Chorley has been waiting to serve it since.
He was originally due to miss Orient's original clash with Yeovil on January 2, but the postponement of that meeting, followed by subsequent postponements against Oldham and Bristol Rovers, means the ban is still hanging over him.
However, midfielder Sean Thornton returns from a suspension after missing the Southend defeat, also for collecting five bookings over the course of the season.
Stephen Purches, Charlie Daniels, Ryan Jarvis and James Scowcroft were also absent against Southend but have recovered from their various injuries and illnesses in the intervening period.
In addition, O's boss Geraint Williams will be able to call upon his trio of new signings, and French striker Jonathan Téhoué, plus loan arrivals Nicky Adams and Matthew Briggs will all be pushing to make their Brisbane Road debuts on Tuesday night.
