Town boss Paul Cook made five changes for the win against Dorking Wanderers on Saturday and many have speculated whether that was with this fixture in mind.

Asked by the DT whether the line-up will be unchanged, assistant manager Danny Webb said: “It may or may not.

"I think a few people were surprised by the changes made Saturday, ultimately we won the game so they were justified.

"It could be the same team.

"What I will say is there were no injury concerns after Dorking so any changes that we make will be due to tactics or rest or we will keep the same team and give those boys the loyalty that the other lads have had.

"Fitness-wise they are a really fit bunch, they are quite robust. I think if you look at our injury list at the moment it is quite short.”

Lucas Covolan is now out of the physio room which just leaves George Cooper and Manny Oyeleke in there.

Webb added: "Lucas is really close now, he is back doing all the goalie work. He is really close but obviously Ross is flying at the minute so that won’t be a change for Tuesday.

"George has a niggly injury, his knee has been playing up and he has a tight hamstring so that is something we have got to manage and it is something that is going on longer than everybody would have liked. I doubt he will be available for Tuesday.

"Manny Oyeleke is the long-termer, other than that we are looking good.”
