If he fails to make the starting line-up then either on-loan Rangers youngster Tom Brighton or Kevin Sharp will take his place.
Other than that, United have no new injury worries and in-form striker Paul Hayes will continue his fruitful partnership with Steve Torpey.
United have sold all of their 500-ticket allocation for the match, and manager Brian Laws is hoping the intense atmosphere will favour his side.
He said: "The fact that their capacity has been reduced means it should be close to been a full house and it should be a great game to watch.
"I'm really looking forward to the game, with us top and them in second it is set up for a cracking match.
"Whoever wins the game is ensured of going top of the table on Saturday evening, so that shows how important it is for both sides.
"We haven't got a good record at their ground, but it is about time we changed that. I don't think there is a better time to change it than when you are top of the league and playing well. One thing for sure, we don't want to go there and get beaten."
