John-Joe O'Toole to return for Cobblers

Table-toppers Northampton have John-Joe O'Toole available for Tuesday's Sky Bet League Two home clash with AFC Wimbledon.

Midfielder O'Toole missed the goalless draw at Hartlepool on Saturday due to illness but is now well enough to be considered.

A late check will be made on defender Rod McDonald, who left the field feeling unwell in the first half at the weekend, as Luke Prosser stands by to replace him.

Forward Marc Richards remains sidelined by an Achilles injury.

Wimbledon striker Tom Elliott and winger Andy Barcham will undergo late fitness tests ahead of the match.

Elliott has a knee problem, while Barcham is nursing a hamstring complaint.

Definitely unavailable is Karleigh Osborne, who sustained a knee injury in training recently and is set to be absent for the rest of the campaign.

Fellow defender Will Nightingale has been stepping up his rehabilitation from a knee problem of his own that has kept him out since September, but also will not feature.
