Nathan Thompson on course for Swindon return after long-term absence

Swindon captain Nathan Thompson could return from injury in his side's Sky Bet League One clash against Crewe on Saturday.

Thompson last featured for the Robins back in September, but played in a development match against Aston Villa earlier this month.

Elsewhere, manager Luke Williams, in temporary charge of the club, will have a fully-fit squad to choose from.

Williams took charge of his first match last Saturday - following Martin Ling's departure - and oversaw a 4-2 victory against Southend United.

Crewe must make at least two changes after losing the services of Ryan Lowe and Adam King.

Striker Lowe and defender King have returned to parent clubs Bury and Swansea respectively following the end of their loan deals.

Alex boss Steve Davis has not yet given hope of re-signing veteran forward Lowe but the 37-year-old was back in the Shakers' side for last week's FA Cup tie against Bradford.

Meanwhile captain Harry Davis, out since September with a knee injury, is making encouraging progress and could return to training later this month.
