Head coach Nelson Jardim has stressed there is competition for places in the Newport County forward line following the long-term injury to Kyle Hudlin.
The on-loan Huddersfield Town forward is expected to be sidelined for 6-8 weeks after suffering a calf injury during the Exiles' match against bottom-of-the-table Carlisle United on February 11.
But Jardim insists that the rest of his attacking players must seize every opportunity that comes their way as the season approaches the business end.
“The last game we needed Kyle more than any other. He offers a different style of football and we needed someone like him in the area,” he said.
“He is good for a team that is playing constantly in the opposition’s half when he can play in the box. The Bradford game was one of them because we had the extra player.
“It’s now an opportunity for other boys David Ajiboye and Bobby Kamwa have played there before, while we have young Geoff Bony.
“He did very well after coming on and is only 20 years old, so he hasn’t finished his process of development.
“These are the moments they have to seize and grab. We have different options and can do different things, it’s down to us to find solutions even if it’s a pity we have lost Hudlin, who is a also a leader.
“Kyle’s injury was something that we were not expecting, that sort of injury would normally happen to a player with a lot of minutes and games.
“We didn’t feel he was tired or had played too much but it just happened and we have to deal with it.”
The Exiles return to League Two action tomorrow afternoon as they face Cheltenham Town at Rodney Parade.
There will be many familiar faces in the Robin's camp on Saturday afternoon - no other so than former boss Michael Flynn.
Flynn took over the reigns at Cheltenham following Darrell Clarke's departure to Barnsley at the end of last season.
And Jardim is looking forward to coming up against the club’s former boss once again.
“He’s a manager who knows the club really well. He’s also a man who’s watched a lot of our games live here this season and someone who I like and respect,” he added.
“He’s always been great with me and we talk a lot. It’s a big game for both of us tomorrow.
“We are close in terms of position, points, goals scored but I think we’ve conceded three or four more, which is probably the only difference right now.
“It should be a good game - a proper League Two fixture and hopefully we can get the win in front of the home supporters.”
