Tigers mauled by injuries

Tricky winger Ryan Williams is one player definately out for the North Bank outfit, as he begins a two match suspension following his red card for dissent in their home defeat to Macclesfield Town.

Young forward Gary Bradshaw, who scored his first senior goal for City midweek, is expected to miss out with back troubles.

Lee Philpott, Richard Sneekes and Julian Johnsson are also all doubts ahead of the game.

Mike Edwards, who recently received a further two game extension to his suspension after being sent off at Glanford Park in December, was reportedly a doubt earlier in the week but should line up at right-back: ready for Hodges to torment.
