Match Preview
Duo missing for Shakers Bury caretaker boss Richie Barker will be without defender Efe Sodje and midfielder Damien Mozika for the home clash with Barnet. The high-flying Shakers beat Burton 1-0 at Gigg Lane on Tuesday but ended the game with nine men following the dismissal of Mozika in the first half and Sodje in the second. Both men now begin three-match bans and Steven Schumacher and Ben Futcher are set to reclaim starting berths in their absence. Bury will again be without striker Andy Bishop, who has undergone surgery on his left knee and is not expected to return until pre-season training. Bishop's absence aside, the second-placed Shakers have no other injury worries as they look to take another step towards winning automatic promotion. They have won their last three matches to keep a degree of pressure on leaders Chesterfield, who have a seven-point advantage with five games left. Barnet will be without Sam Walker and Mark Hughes through suspension for Giuliano Grazioli's first game in charge. Goalkeeper Walker is banned for one match after his red card against Crewe last weekend and midfielder Hughes completes a two-game ban for 10 bookings. Jake Cole is still out with a knee injury so Liam O'Brien will start in goal after recovering from a broken finger, while Tommy Fraser should continue in Hughes' absence. Striker Ricky Holmes played for the reserves in midweek after four months out with a foot injury and should be involved but midfielder Anthony Pulis (Achilles) and defenders Anwar Uddin (ankle) and Darren Dennehy (foot) are still in the treatment room. Ex-Bees forward Grazioli has been put in caretaker charge after Martin Allen's shock defection to Notts County on Monday.

Match Report
Win leaves Shakers on brink of promotion Bury are on the cusp of securing promotion to League One after first-half goals from Nicky Ajose and Michael Jones saw off the challenge of Barnet in a 2-0 win. Shakers striker Ryan Lowe almost opened the scoring in the opening 15 minutes, but his chip was tipped over by Liam O'Brien. Steve Kabba had an equally good chance for the Bees moments later, but Tom Lees was on hand to clear off the line. That was as good as it got for the Bees, though, as Bury landed a double blow, Ajose rounding O'Brien after a mistake by Matty Parsons on 16 minutes, followed by a deft strike by Michael Jones five minutes later. Although Barnet fought desperately to get back into the game in the second half, the Shakers' defence held firm and, indeed , they could have added to their tally on the hour mark when Ajose's shot was blocked on the line by Glen Southam. But it did not matter as Bury saw out a win which leaves the Bees sitting in the League Two relegation zone.
