Barnsley midfielder Jacob Mellis has been eliminated in the South Yorkshire derby clash with Doncaster on account of an ankle injury. Mellis damaged ligaments during last Friday's draw at Ipswich and was replaced by Jim O'Brien, who is likely to return to the scratch-up as he continued to win the man-of-the-match award.
Luke Steele remains sidelined with his long-term back injury etc-loan Jack Butland will continue in goal, but otherwise manager David Flitcroft has a full-strength squad to select from.
Winger Paddy McCourt shook off a gluteal condition in the perfect time to start yesterday and is likely to resume in midfield despite being replaced just after the hour-mark by Kelvin Etuhu.
Theo Robinson will resume the reckoning for Doncaster. Summer signing Robinson was obviously a late withdrawal against Brighton last weekend because of hamstring strain however the striker may be declared fit for Saturday.
Rovers boss Paul Dickov have been dealt an injury blow while using the news that captain Rob Jones could possibly be out between two months using a neck injury. The centre-half was sent for just a scan this week after having suffered problems throughout the warm-up ahead of the home defeat to Brighton.
