TEAM NEWS
Saturday’s 4-3 defeat saw the return of Joe Kendrick as a late substitute after overcoming his injury which has seen him out for a couple weeks. Robbie Dale was dropped to the bench and will be hoping after coming on in the second half he deserves a place in the starting lineup.

Craig Hubbard’s hatrick is the first for the club this season and he will be hoping to continue his goalscoring form against the Robins on Tuesday night at Croft Park. The two teams are tied on 23 points, only goal difference pushing the visitors higher and into the play offs.

IN THE AWAY DUG OUT
Kevin Wilson – Ex Chelsea, Notts County, Derby County and Ipswich Town player, also has 42 caps for Northern Ireland. Been in charge since the club reformed in 2010.

DANGER MAN
Gary Ricketts – Scored 6 in the league for the Robins this season
