Finds bench role
Hickey (hamstring) is on the bench for Saturday's clash against Fulham.
Analysis: Hickey returns to the matchday squad after around two months out with a hamstring issue, with manager Keith Andrews confirming he had a good week of training ahead of the Fulham fixture. The full-back started seven of his 18 appearances before the injury, and a bench role represents a logical first step in his comeback with Michael Kayode and Keane Lewis-Potter set to keep their full-back roles. His versatility to play on either side could see him work his way into more minutes over Lewis-Potter in the coming fixtures.
Available to face Fulham
Hickey (hamstring) is an option for Saturday's match against Fulham, according to manager Keith Andrews. "Aaron [is available] from the last game, which is a bonus for us. He's been missing for a number of weeks, so it will be nice to get him back involved. He was close last weekend, but he's had a good week's training."
Analysis: Hickey is returning to play for the contest against Fulham, finally an option after around three months out. That said, this is great news for the full-back as he gives his club another option at full-back. He started in seven of his 18 appearances before the injury, so he is likely to be set for more of a depth role, although his versatility could see him earn more time, able to play either side. Michael Kayode and Keane Lewis-Potter are set to start at full-backs moving forward, although Hickey could work into some time over Lewis-Potter.
