One to watch: The hugely-experienced Matthew Wolfenden is likely to be a worry to Boro. He has scored four in his last six outings.

Rival view: Boss Simon Haworth said: "As soon as we go Saturday to Saturday then things will be better for us. We play with high energy, which makes things hard when you are playing on a Tuesday and a Saturday."

Team news: Matty Dixon and Will Annan will miss out, though Leon Scott comes back in after illness.

Chris Sharp is struggling with an ankle injury, but he should be OK. Glenn Rule has a groin strain, so he may miss out
