The defender, who joined from Histon during the summer, has been struggling with a back injury but has now returned to training. And manager Gudjon Thordarson is relieved to have the defender back in contention. "Mat should hopefully be involved on Friday night which is a big boost for us," he said. "He has had a couple of training sessions with us now, and he's been working hard to keep up his fitness. "He was close to being fit for Saturday but we decided not to risk him but hopefully he will be fit for selection when we go to Accrington. "Mat is a calming influence at the back, and a real presence on the pitch. He gives us something different and leads by example which is healthy. It will be good to have him back."
