Crewe Alexandra vs Bury preview - Alex to call on Colclough again

Winger Ryan Colclough looks set to retain his place in the Crewe starting line-up for Saturday's Sky Bet League One home clash with Bury.

Colclough was brought into the first XI for his maiden start of the season on Tuesday and put in an impressive performance as the Alex were beaten 3-2 at Coventry.

Steve Davis' men came through that match without sustaining any new injuries.

Defender Harry Davis has returned to training as he steps up his recovery from a knee problem, but the weekend's game is almost certainly too early for him, and midfielder James Jones (shoulder) is still unavailable.

Bury have no fresh injury concerns for the trip to Gresty Road.

Midfielders Kelvin Etuhu and Danny Mayor are both set to continue after coming through 90 minutes against Fleetwood in midweek despite recent knocks.

Craig Jones is also hoping to get back into contention after a groin problem.

Strikers Ryan Lowe (ankle) and Daniel Nardiello (back) are unlikely to feature but are both back in training.
