Altrincham are set to include defender Marc Joseph, who has completed a three-match ban.Striker Chris Denham is unlikely to feature as he continues to recover from a groin injury.

Southport will be without leading scorer Shaun Whalley, who begins a four-match ban.

Steve Daly is fit again after a recent appendix operation and could deputise, but defender Rob Marsh-Evans (ankle ligament) is almost certainly out.
