Crewe Alexandra striker Lee Matthews could return to action by the end of the month after fears that he had suffered a serious injury subsided.
There were concerns that the 27-year-old had suffered ankle ligament damage after being clattered in the reserves' 1-0 win over Liverpool on Wednesday.
He had to be substituted late in the game but an assessment of the injury has shown that he only suffered swelling.
"The main thing is that it isn't anything to do with any injuries he's had before," Alex boss Dario Graid told the club's official website.
