Price To Spearhead Attack

Jamie Forrester (cheekbone) and Danny Allsopp (groin) are both out for a number of weeks, and Price is predicted to be moved to a forward position, partnering Ben Burgess. Ryan France would therefore come into the side on the right wing to make his first league start.

However, this hasn't been confirmed, and Peter Taylor could instead opt to play Stuart Elliott in attack and call-up Andy Holt to left wing.

No changes are likely to be made to the rest of the starting line-up. Goalkeeper Alan Fettis could be recalled to the bench if he's over a dead leg. John Anderson is also nearing a comeback after getting through another reserve game in midweek. Shaun Smith is available after returning from a loan spell at Carlisle but won't figure in Taylor's first team plans, while Greg Strong (knee) and Steve Melton (ankle) should be fit again next week.

Expected line-up (4-4-2): Musselwhite; Hinds, Joseph, Delaney, Dawson; France, Ashbee, Green, Elliott; Price, Burgess.
Subs: Whittle, Holt, Keates, Donaldson, Webb.
