Defender Rod McDonald remains an injury concern for Stuart Maynard, who will continue with his 3-4-3 set-up at home to Grimsby.
Lewis Macari, Matt Platt and Jordan Bedeau look certainties to be the back three though it's up front where Maynard could make a tweak with David McGoldrick on the bench last time. Skipper Matt Palmer, fit again after six months out, is in contention to slot back into central midfield.
New signing Matt Carson is available after injury though may struggle to get further than the bench.
Boss David Artell is set to stick with his 4-2-3-1 set-up. Skipper Danny Rose is pushing for a recall after a lay-off while new Icelandic signing Jason Dadi Svanthorsson is a doubt after picking up a foot injury on his debut.
