County are awaiting the results of tests but the early prognosis is that Jackson has strained ligaments in a knee and looks set to be out for around two weeks.[LNB]Fellow midfielder Neal Bishop will have a fitness test after twisting an ankle in the FA Cup second-round win at Bournemouth at the weekend.[LNB]Top scorer Lee Hughes, who took his goals tally for the season to 12 with County's equaliser in Saturday's 2-1 victory, is also a doubt with a knock.[LNB]County are unbeaten at Meadow Lane in the league this season while bottom-of-the-table Darlington have yet to win on their travels. Magpies manager Hans Backe is still looking for his first league win but the Swede insists it is not a formality that it will arrive against the Quakers.[LNB]"We can't underestimate them or we will lose points or lose the game," said Backe. "They got in some loan players last week and they are a different team after that. Those three or four players they have brought in will raise them."[LNB][LNB]
