Krystian Pearce absent for Mansfield through suspension

Mansfield will be without the suspended Krystian Pearce for their FA Cup first-round clash with Oldham at the One Call Stadium.

Pearce must sit out after being handed an additional one-match ban for improper conduct following his sending off in a stormy encounter with Bristol Rovers last month.

Stags boss Adam Murray must also wait to discover whether Blair Adams will be given permission to play under the terms of his loan deal with Notts County.

Mansfield are still without Mal Benning who was injured in the Rovers game and is not expected back until January at the earliest.

Burnley have given Oldham permission for defender Cameron Dummigan to play at Mansfield after he extended his loan deal at Boundary Park by one month.

The Latics are waiting to hear from Swansea and Sheffield United about whether they are happy for loanees Jay Fulton and Michael Higdon to play in the FA Cup match.

Left-back Danny Lafferty has been sent back to parent club Burnley due to a shoulder problem and Jonathan Burn has returned to Middlesbrough because of injury.

Striker Jake Cassidy (ankle) and midfielder Liam Kelly (suspension) are out, but Mike Jones is in contention after recovering from an ankle problem.
