Alex Addai and Nigel Atangana remain sidelined for Cheltenham

Cheltenham have one or two players nursing minor knocks ahead of their home game against Bury.

However, Robins boss Michael Duff does not expect to have any new injury absentees and should be able to select from an unchanged squad on Tuesday night.

Defender Sean Long played in a behind-closed-doors match last week, having missed the whole season with an ankle problem, so Alex Addai (hamstring) and Nigel Atangana (Achilles) are the only players unavailable to Duff.

Cheltenham have won their last four home games and have kept three successive clean sheets at Whaddon Road.

Bury boss Ryan Lowe could name an unchanged side as the Shakers look for the victory that would send them top of the table.

Scott Wharton returned from a groin injury on Saturday and the defender will keep his place in the starting line up if he has suffered no ill effects.

Byron Moore might be one player who Lowe considers recalling after the forward’s run in the team was ended with him being a substitute for the home win against Macclesfield at the weekend.

Midfielder Stephen Dawson (foot) and forward Jermaine Beckford (knee) are set to remain on the sidelines.
