Leyton Orient teenager Jabo Ibehre could keep his place at York tomorrow after impressing in the club's Worthington Cup defeat against Crystal Palace.

The 18-year-old is in line to partner Steve Watts again and midfielder Scott Houghton is in no doubt that Ibehre can succeed.

Houghton said: "Jabo did very well against Palace. He is still very young and learning his trade, but he gives us something else up front. It won't be long before he attracts the attention of bigger clubs."
