Purches hopes to mask over injury
The 29-year-old defender has undergone surgery on the fractured cheekbone he suffered against Stockport last week but is confident he will not be sidelined for too long.
"Hopefully with the mask I won't miss many games," he said.
"I'll just have to get used to wearing it but if I feel okay I may even be able to train next week. It all depends how I feel."
Meanwhile, midfielder Kristian O'Leary looks likely to have played the last game of his month-long loan spell from Swansea after suffering a knee injury.
