Torpey doubt for Rochdale

He has an undisclosed injury, and reserve striker Andy Parton is on standby to partner Paul Hayes if needed.

Left-back Kevin Sharp is also out of the game with an ankle injury, with Lee Ridley coming into the side as a replacement.

Elsewhere, Iron manager Brian Laws will have a full squad to choose from - and there are unlikely to be any surprises.

The only grey area in team selection is for the goalkeeper - but summer signing Paul Musselwhite has been prefered ahead of Tommy Evans in the senior squad's pre-season friendlies which looks to give him the edge.

Andy Crosby will partner Mark Jackson or Andy Butler, with Nathan Stanton at right-back.

Peter Beagrie and Cleveland Taylor will play on the wings, with Ian Baraclough likely to partner Matthew Sparrow in the centre of midfield.
