Bournemouth v Walsall
(Home 5/4 Draw 9/4 Away 7/4)
Brett Pitman (foot) and Neil Young (knee) have both returned to training this week, while Adam Lallana and Jo Kuffour may also start for The Cherries after impressing as substitutes in the 2-1 defeat at Millwall.
Walsall boss Richard Money has no fresh injury concerns and is boosted by the return of Ismael Demontagnac from a shoulder problem. Carlos Carneiro (shoulder), Allan Picken (ankle) and Paul Boertien (ankle) are long-term absentees.
Cheltenham v Crewe
(Home 6/5 Draw 9/4 Away 15/8 )
Cheltenham welcome Jeremy Gill back from a three-game suspension, while caretaker boss Keith Downing also has Steven Gillespie available again following a hip problem.
Lee Barnard (ankle), Julien Baudet (thigh) and George Abbey (hamstring) all picked up injuries in Crewe's 2-0 victory over Luton last time out, but Tom Pope could return from a hamstring injury and Elliott Bennett should go straight into the squad after signing from Wolves.
Gillingham v Bristol Rovers
(Home 11/10 Draw 9/4 Draw 2/1)
Steve Lomas is back in contention for Gillingham after shaking off a hamstring problem, while Mark Bentley is also fit following a bout of flu.
Aaron Lescott (knee) and Joe Jacobson (leg) are on the comeback trail for Rovers and could figure at The Priestfield Stadium, but Byron Anthony is set to be sidelined until the New Year with his broken metatarsal.
Hartlepool v Brighton
(Home 5/6 Draw 9/4 Away 11/4)
Ian Moore is out for Hartlepool after collecting his fifth yellow card of the season in the 1-0 victory over Bristol Rovers, so Danny Wilson must decide whether to replace him with Antiony Sweeney or Michael Mackay.
Dean Cox returns for Brighton after serving a one-match ban, but on-loan midfielder George O'Callaghan has been back at Ipswich all week receiving treatment on his hamstring injury and is not due to return to the South Coast until Monday.
Leeds v Millwall
(Home 4/9 Draw 11/4 Away 11/2)
Radostin Kishishev is set to go straight into Leeds' starting line-up after rejoining the club for a second loan spell, but Dennis Wise will be without Alan Thompson (hamstring), Andrew Hughes (groin), Tore Andre Flo (foot) and Leon Constantine (ankle).
Dave Brammer has been ruled out for Millwall with a knee injury and joins Chris Hackett, Ryan Smith, Danny Spiller and Tom Brighton on the sidelines.
Luton v Nottingham Forest
(Home 7/4 Draw 9/4 Away 5/4)
Drew Talbot is missing for Luton with a viral infection, while Lewis Emanuel and Ahmet Brkovic have been sent out on loan and goalkeeper Ben Alnwick has been recalled by Tottenham.
James Perch (knee), Nathan Tyson (calf) and Wes Morgan (knee) are all doubtful for in-form Forest so Colin Calderwood may decide to hand a debut to summer signing Arron Davies.
Oldham v Northampton
(Home 6/5 Draw 9/4 Away 15/8 )
Sean Gregan is almost certainly out for Oldham with an Achilles injury and there could be other changes as John Sheridan has threatened to wield the axe. Stefan Stam, John Thompson and Neal Trotman are all in contention to come into the side.
Northampton captain Chris Doig is back from a hamstring injury for the trip to Boundary Park, while Giles Coke could feature from the bench after turning out for the reserves in midweek, his first appearance since suffering a serious knee problem in January.
Port Vale v Swindon
(Home 6/4 Draw 11/5 Away 6/4)
Adam Eckersley is available for Port Vale after serving a one-match suspension, while Paul Harsley could also return from injury. Jason Talbot is doubtful with an ankle problem.
Sam Collins is back in training for Swindon but may have to settle for a place on the bench with defenders Hasney Aljofree and Andy Nicholas in good form in the 1-0 victory over Tranmere last weekend.
Southend v Carlisle
(Home evens Draw 9/4 Away 9/4)
Southend manager Steve Tilson is without Richie Foran (flu), Darryl Flahavan (back) and Garry Richards (foot) for the visit of Carlisle, but there still might not be a place in the starting line-up for club captain Kevin Maher, who has been left out for the past two games.
Jeff Smith is poised to return for The Cumbrians following an ankle injury, but Paul Thirlwell (calf) is likely to be sidelined for another month.
Yeovil v Swansea
(Home 5/4 Draw 9/4 Away 7/4)
Marcus Stewart could come back into the Yeovil side after missing last weekend's 1-1 draw against Bristol City with a hamstring problem. James Walker is also in line to make his first appearance for the club after joining on loan from Charlton last week.
Roberto Martinez has a fully-fit squad to choose from as Swansea search for their fifth successive win in all competitions. Jason Scotland and Warren Feeney are once again expected to lead the line.
Sunday
Doncaster v Leyton Orient
(Home 11/10 Draw 9/4 Away 2/1)
Gareth Roberts is a major doubt for Doncaster after being forced to leave the field with double vision during the midweek Johnstone's Paint Trophy win over Oldham. Striker Mark McCammon is still nursing a hamstring problem.
Orient duo Tamika Mkandawire and Adam Chambers are expected to shake off knocks in time to play, while Alton Thelwell should also be fit after resting a knee problem last week.
