We face Stockport County away in Sky Bet League One on Saturday (3pm kick-off)
New signing John Lundstram, the former Sheffield United and Hull City midfielder, has trained this week
Caleb Okoli is close to returning to contention after an injury complaint over recent weeks
Conor Chaplin remains on the sidelines and is expected to miss Saturday's encounter in Greater Manchester

We travel to Edgeley Park for a 3pm kick-off against Jimmy McNulty's Hatters, looking for a return to winning ways after last weekend's defeat to Oxford United at King Power Stadium.

Martin, speaking to the media in Seagrave on Friday, provided an update on the condition of his players, with Conor Chaplin remaining out, but better news elsewhere in the squad.

As well as confirming Lundstram is likely to be 'in the squad' at the weekend, the Manager also said: "Caleb is back. Whether he’s ready for the squad or not, we need to decide.

"Conor is still out. We’re hopeful for next week, but if not then obviously as soon as possible after that. But apart from that, I think everyone’s okay."

There was also an update on Jakub Stolarczyk, our Polish goalkeeper who sustained an ACL injury earlier this month which is likely to keep him out for the rest of the season, alongside Ben Nelson with a similar injury.

"Big Jak had his ACL surgery on Wednesday and that went well," Martin added. "Now we start the road to recovery for the big man as well. He’s good, I spoke to him on FaceTime after his op.

"He was happy to get it done so quickly. It’s now a long road and he has Ben, two amazing young guys, who will support each other and push each other on I’ve got no doubt."

All times BST.
