Stuart Beavon set to boost Burton
Stuart Beavon could return to Burton's starting line-up for the EFL Cup clash with Bury.
Striker Beavon was restricted to a substitute appearance against Nottingham Forest on Saturday as he nursed a niggling groin problem, but he is in line for a return.
Boss Nigel Clough confirmed record signing Jackson Irvine will make his debut in midfield after an impressive pre-season.
Lee Williamson (ankle) may not be risked after playing in the 4-3 defeat at the weekend, but Calum Butcher (calf) could play a more prominent role.
Goalkeeper Paul Rachubka joined Bury as a replacement for Chris Kirkland and sat on the bench against Charlton.
He is an option for David Flitcroft but Ben Williams is likely to keep his starting spot after the 2-0 win, while Leon Barnett is still short of match fitness since joining the club.
George Miller (ankle ligament) remains sidelined, but Zeli Ismail is pushing for a first start after making his debut from the bench.
Kelvin Etuhu is likely to be given a start after scoring a late goal after coming on as a substitute, with Nicky Clark a possible casualty should Flitcroft opt for a change of shape.
