Ryan France is doubtful due to a back injury, so in-form midfielder Stuart Green is set to start on the right in a four-man midfield.
Alton Thelwell is rumoured to be injured as well so Scott Wiseman could get a call-up. Mark Lynch is another option. Fellow defender Damien Delaney should be fit after a knock, otherwise Taylor has problems due to no real cover for the centre back positions.
Andy Dawson is training again after two months out injured, but is lacking match practice so Alan Rogers is set to make a fourth successive appearance at left back.
Taylor is likely to bring a striker back into the team to partner Jon Parkin. It remains to be seen if there is a rift with the Tigers manager and Craig Fagan; Darryl Duffy or Billy Paynter could be preferred.
Nick Barmby is on the comeback trail but won't be fit in time. He has a chance of returning next week against Crewe though.
Expected line-up (4-4-2): Boaz Myhill; Scott Wiseman, Leon Cort, Damien Delaney, Alan Rogers; Stuart Green, Keith Andrews, Mark Noble, Stuart Elliottt; Jon Parkin, Darryl Duffy.
Subs: Matt Duke, Mark Lynch, John Welsh, Kevin Ellison, Billy Paynter.
