Hide AdBryn Morris and Lloyd Isgrove are both ineligible having represented Wycombe and Barnsley, respectively, in the Checkatrade Trophy this term.
Nathan Thompson (knee) is over his setback but Andy Cannon (quad) is still sidelined.
Meanwhile, Ryan Lowe is set to name a strong starting line-up for the visit of the Blues.
The Bury boss is likely to field a similar side to the one that beat Oldham 3-1 on Saturday.

Hide AdLowe might opt to start Dominic Telford up front ahead of Byron Moore, however.
Telford has scored seven goals in the Checkatrade Trophy this season.
Striker Jermaine Beckford (knee) has played just once this campaign and will remain sidelined.
Stephen Dawson has also been struggling with a foot injury and is unlikely to be involved against Jackett’s side.
