Wycombe boss Ainsworth hopes for fitness boost

Wycombe boss Gareth Ainsworth is hoping for an injury boost ahead of his side’s Sky Bet League One meeting with Rochdale.

Wanderers go into the game on a dreadful run of form having picked up just one point from their past five matches.

But both Jack Grimmer, who has missed his side’s last six matches, and midfielder Fred Onyedinma are almost back to full fitness.

Wycombe are without Rolando Aarons, a substitute in last week’s 4-0 thrashing by Sunderland, who has returned to his parent club Newcastle.

Rochdale are unable to hand a debut to new signing Tyler Smith for the trip to Buckinghamshire.

The Sheffield United striker has agreed a loan deal until the end of the season, but his return-to-play protocol after an injury means he cannot join up with the squad until Monday.

Boss Brian Barry-Murphy still has a number of injury issues to contend with as he looks to bounce back from the midweek FA Cup defeat at Newcastle.

Oliver Rathbone (ankle) and Ryan McLaughlin (quad muscle) are expected to miss out again, while Tyler Magloire and Paul McShane are also doubts.
