IAN Holloway needs no encouragement to change his starting line-up but will be forced into changes against Forest Green du to injuries sustained in the match with Carlisle on Saturday. James Tilley and Harry Clifton both picked up knocks which forced them off in the second half.

Owura Edwards and Danny Rose are also doubtful due to injuries sustained in earlier games. The injured quartet are arguably all members of Town's strongest XI. Elliott Hewitt, Max Wright and Ludvig Öhman are also injured.

Town were better against Carlisle at the weekend, an improvement on the poor midweek display against Harrogate, but had to settle for a draw after a horrendous howler by 'keeper James McKeown saw the Town stopper slice the ball into his own net. The draw was probably a fair reflection of play in difficult conditions.

Forest Green are one of the division's fancied sides and have started well with just one defeat in the first eight games.
