It is set to be one in and one out for Joey Barton's Bristol Rovers in midfield on Saturday when they take on Burton Albion at the Pirelli Stadium.
Sam Finley returned to training on Thursday and is in contention to play after missing the opening day defeat to Forest Green Rovers with a groin issue, but the Gas are set to be without Jordan Rossiter.
The former Rangers and Liverpool midfielder picked up a hamstring injury on debut in the late stages of the 2-1 defeat on Saturday and he is likely to miss Saturday's trip to Staffordshire. Midfield is an area of the pitch where resources are light for Barton with Paul Coutts two games away from returning from suspension, Josh Grant recovering from a knee injury, and Zain Westbrooke among three players told to find a new club earlier his week.
