MANSFIELD Town are hoping skipper Adie Moses will be fit to face 'local rivals' Burton Albion in tomorrow night live Setanta-televised clash at the Pirelli Stadium (7.45pm).
Moses has missed the last two games with a calf strain but, with on-loan Frenchman Max Chanot missing the game for his red card at Stevenage last week, Stags have no other recognised out and out central defenders to partner Alan O'Hare, though Gavin Hurren can play there if needed.

"We have one or two carrying knocks but hopefully they will be okay for Monday," boss Billy McEwan told the club's official web site. "We are keeping our fingers crossed.

"It is only 45 minutes down the road so we know it will be a battle. I know all about Burton from my previous employment and we are hoping for a good turnout from our fans and that they get behind the boys as they always do and help us through."

Stags, looking to bounce back from two successive defeats, have been in training all weekend and McEwan added: "We have dropped points recently and we have had two diabolical penalty decisions against us in the last two games and you can't legislate for that. They were not even controversial - the were not penalties in a million years."

The Brewers, who include former Stags skipper Jake Buxton, are unbeaten at home this season but have yet to keep a clean sheet at the Pirelli.
