Sappleton missing for Macc
Macclesfield boss Gary Simpson is still without the services of striker Ricky Sappleton ahead of the trip to Torquay.
Sappleton remains sidelined with a knee injury but midfielder Richard Butcher is edging closer to fitness after a similar complaint.
Shaun Brisley is looking at the possibility of a hernia operation and is a doubt, while Paul Bolland is almost certain to miss out with a groin strain.
However, Vinny Mukendi is expected to be passed fit after a knee injury as the Silkmen bid to bounce back from last weekend's 3-0 home defeat against Port Vale.
Macclesfield lie third bottom of npower League Two but an upbeat Simpson said: "A couple of wins will see us back in the mix."
