Graham Carey set for Plymouth start against Mansfield
Plymouth manager Derek Adams could finally get a chance to fully test Graham Carey's fitness after last Saturday's away fixture against Yeovil was postponed.
Carey, having recovered from a medial ligament injury and returning as a substitute previously, was looking to start against Yeovil until a waterlogged Huish Park pitch ruled that out.
The winger should get a run-out against Mansfield, though the injured duo of Josh Simpson and Tyler Harvey are not expected to feature.
Further towards the future, Adams has this week expressed a desire to bring Hiram Boateng back for a second stint from parent club Crystal Palace, after the midfielder made 19 appearances and scored twice when on loan earlier in the season.
Mansfield manager Adam Murray has no concerns as his side look to maintain their promotion push.
Murray's only worry will be fatigue as his men recover from two matches in four days ahead of another long trip south after the midweek draw at Oxford.
The Stags boss changed his forward players against the Us but all three substitutes - Chris Beardsley, Jack Thomas and on-loan Swansea full-back Daniel Alfei, making his debut for the club - made excellent contributions on Tuesday night and will be pushing for starting places.
Mal Benning has started the last three games since returning from a serious knee injury and Murray may be thinking about giving the defender a rest.
