Barnet will be without Guiliano Grazioli, Neil Bishop, and Ismail Yakubu forcing Assistant Manager Ian Hendon back into reckoning after entering semi-retirement in the summer. Youth team products Danny Hart and James Cole are expected to bolster the first team squad.
Vice-captain Sagi Burton could miss the game if his wife goes into labour. She is expecting at any time.
The Bulls are sweating on Wayne Brown's fitness, with the keeper missing training on both Wednesday and Thursday and a backup stopper is expected to arrive today. No other doubts are expected with Graham Turner only dilemmas being which pair of Benjamin, Guinan, and Robinson to deploy up front, and whether to name Smith or Taylor in the middle of the park.
Best Odds: Barnet 5/4, Draw 9/4, Bulls 11/5. First goalscorer: Hatch 13/2, Guinan 7/1, Birchall 15/2, Palmer 9/1.
