TEAM NEWS
Kairo Mitchell's red card picked up against Hartlepool United on Easter Monday could see him miss the game, although Dale have appealed the sending off, with a decision expected before Saturday's game.
Ian Henderson returned from his own suspension in the game and could be in line to replace Mitchell if needed, although McNulty has a number of options available to him with only Kyle Ferguson and Brad Kelly out through injury.
THE OPPOSITION
Oldham are winless in their last seven games, but still have a chance of reaching the National League playoffs, sitting five points off seventh placed Aldershot with four games remaining.
Micky Mellon was appointed their manager in October, with his first game being the 4-3 win at the Crown Oil Arena.
He guided them up the league table and Latics were sitting in the playoff places until their recent sticky patch.
Former Tranmere Rovers and Ipswich Town forward James Norwood is their top scorer with 17 goals.
