Steve Hayward, Kevin Donovan and Carl Barrowclough all played in the reserves in midweek but it is too early for them to be risked even on the subs bench.
Mitch Ward (ankle) and Brian O’Callaghan (abdominal strain) are definately out.
Oldham manager Iain Dowie has striker Scott Vernon back in the squad along with defender Michael Clegg.
However, David Eyres is suspended and Josh Low out injured.
Paul Murray who sat out the Latics F.A. Cup victory at Burton Albion is also named in the squad along with John Eyre who came on and scored as a substitute in the match.
Former Reds favourite Darren Sheridan should play. The experienced midfielder missed a penalty in the shootout at Burton on Wednesday night.
