TEAM NEWS

New goalkeeper Jacob Chapman, who signed on loan from Huddersfield Town earlier this week, will go straight into Saturday's squad, with Tiernan Brooks away on international duty.

George Nevett will also miss the game due to his call-up to Wales Under-19s.

Ian Henderson is serving the second of a three-match suspension, following his straight red card against Woking last week.

Sam Mather missed last Saturday's game with a dead leg, whilst Tyrese Sinclair and D'Mani Mellor have both been out of action since the beginning of March. All are expected back soon but it remains to be seen exactly when they will return.

Kyle Ferguson and Brad Kelly are both out injured for the remainder of the season.

THE OPPOSITION

Maidenhead United are currently 19th in the league table, two points clear of the relegation zone.
 
They have picked up two wins in their last four games, including a superb 3-1 win at playoff chasing Altrincham.
 
Reece Smith is their leading marksman on ten goals. He appeared for England C during the week, in their defeat to Wales C.
 
HEAD-TO-HEAD
 
This will be only the second-ever meeting between the sides and the first one at the Crown Oil Arena.
 
The reverse fixture earlier in the season ended in a 2-2 draw, with goals from Kairo Mitchell and Tyrese Sinclair.
 
MAN IN THE MIDDLE
 
Dale Baines will be the referee for Saturday's game. He is in his first season at National League level and is brother of former Wigan Athletic and Everton defender Leighton Baines.
