Josh Vickers could return for Lincoln

Lincoln will check on the fitness of goalkeeper Josh Vickers ahead of their home game against Morecambe.

Vickers missed the League Two win at Stevenage after suffering a thigh injury during the FA Cup victory over Carlisle. Should he remain on the sidelines, Grant Smith will continue between the posts.

Forward Shay McCartan is among the Imps players pushing for a recall at Sincil Bank on Saturday.

Sam Habergham is still out with the knee issue that has prevented the defender from making an appearance so far this season.

Morecambe skipper Barry Roche could be pushing for a return to the starting line-up.

The goalkeeper has been out of the team since suffering a thigh injury in the Shrimps’ draw with Newport at the end of October.

Defender Zak Mills has been ruled out after having a hernia operation to fix a problem he has been battling against since joining the club in the summer.

Defender James Sinclair (ankle) plus midfielders Aaron Wildig (calf) and Andy Fleming (knee) remain long-term injury absentees.
