New boys primed for Bulls opener
Defenders Darren Moss and Laurence Wilson are set to feature alongside the on-loan Huddersfield pair of midfielder Ian Craney and striker Phil Jevons.
Elsewhere, skipper Jim Bentley is set to miss out with a shoulder injury while Wayne Curtis (knee) and Garry Hunter (groin) are also ruled out after missing the pre-season.
Craig Stanley is set for a return against his former club after missing the second half of last season with a foot injury.
McIlroy said: "We are fitter than we were at this stage last season and have a more settled squad and players like Ian Craney and Phil Jevons will definitely add quality to the side."
