Duo doubts for Shakers

Bury will check on midfielders Kelvin Etuhu and Danny Mayor ahead of the Sky Bet League One clash with Fleetwood at Gigg Lane.

The pair were withdrawn for precautionary reasons after suffering knocks in the 2-2 draw with Swindon on Saturday.

Striker Daniel Nardiello (back) and midfielder Craig Jones (groin) are set to miss out again but are expected back in training this week.

Veteran forward Ryan Lowe is not yet back in the picture having suffered an ankle injury in pre-season.

Fleetwood are likely to be without club captain Nathan Pond, who was carried from the field on a stretcher as Saturday's 1-0 defeat at Oldham drew to a close.

Substitute Pond appeared to have sustained a serious ankle injury, with manager Graham Alexander keeping his fingers crossed for good news but fearing the worst.

There was better news for Alexander as striker Jamille Matt, who missed the whole of last season through injury, got another 62 minutes under his belt.

However, his side head into the game still looking for a first win of the campaign after drawing at home to Southend on opening day before bowing out of the Capital One Cup at the hands of League Two Hartlepool.
