Collins set for welcome return

Centre-back Collins, who has been struggling with an Achilles problem of late, missed Saturday's embarrassing 5-0 defeat at home to MK Dons through illness but he should return to contention.Fit-again forward Denis Behan was introduced as a first-half substitute at the weekend as a replacement for the ineffective Armann Bjornsson and he could be handed his first start since the end of November as director of sport Chris Turner looks to ring the changes.Full-back Peter Hartley serves the second game of a three-match ban while James Brown (knee) is Pools' only long-term injury absentee.
