Hartlepool set to stick with winning line-up
Hartlepool boss Craig Hignett is unlikely to make changes for the home clash with Mansfield.
Pools are unbeaten in their last six matches and have named an unchanged line-up for the last four matches.
Defender Rob Jones was back on the bench following a head injury for Monday's 2-0 win at Leyton Orient, while full-back Michael Duckworth played an hour for the reserves in midweek as he edges closer to a first-team return after hernia surgery.
Harry Worley, who has been sidelined with an ankle injury, came off in the second-string game with a knee problem which is being assessed.
Midfielder Jamie McGuire is suspended for Mansfield.
McGuire serves a one-match ban after his dismissal in the draw with Northampton, while Adi Yussuf is absent as he completes a five-game ban.
Defender Ryan Tafazolli is awaiting the results of a scan on the dead leg he suffered against Northampton.
Reggie Lambe is back from international duty with Bermuda.
