Griffith set for Shrews bow

Anthony Griffith could make his Shrewsbury debut against Luton after becoming Micky Mellon's 17th signing of the summer.

The former Port Vale midfielder signed on Wednesday although is only expected to be only the bench.

Andy Mangan is missing after picking up a hamstring injury in the 1-0 Capital One Cup win over Leicester.

Liam Lawrence is still suspended after being sent off at Northampton, Mark Ellis is in contention after a knee injury but Dave McAllister (ankle) is not match fit.

Scott Griffiths is expected to return for Luton.

The left-back was absent at Accrington last weekend through injury - the first league fixture Griffiths had missed for the Hatters since the back end of the 2012/13 campaign.

Luke Guttridge comes into contention for a starting place following his performance from the bench against Stanley.

However, fellow midfielders Jonathan Smith and Alex Lawless remain on the sidelines. It is hoped both players could be back in the frame for first-team selection in around 10 days time.
