MATCH BUILDUP
TEAM NEWS
Wrexham Wycombe Wanderers
Injuries: Lee Jones is still out with a calf injury and he is joined on the sidelines by Shaun Holmes who has a groin strain.. Injuries: Craig Falconbridge has returned to reserve team action but Tony Adams will not risk the former Wrexham striker as he is not fully fit.
Suspensions: None. Suspensions: Michael Simpson.
Squad (18): Dibble, Whitfield, Carey, Morgan, Roberts, Pejic, Lawrence, C Edwards, P Edwards, Thomas, Barrett, Crowell, Ferguson, Whitley, Armstrong, M Jones, Llewellyn, Sam. Squad (20): Talia, Senda, Johnson, Thomson, Vinnicombe, Roberts, Bulman, Brown, Currie, McSporran, Holligan, Williams, Bell, Ryan, Harris, Dixon, Mapes, Cook, Oliver, Simpemba.
Other News: Dennis Smith has been boosted with the news that Paul Edwards is back in the squad and with Holmes still out he is expected to come straight back into the side on the left with Carlos Edwards switching back to his favoured right flank. Dennis Smith now has options in midfield with Jim Whitley back from suspension and Steve Thomas free from covering on the right wing. Expect Crowell to drop out then it is two from Whitley, Barrett or Thomas to join Darren Ferguson in midfield. Up front will be Chris Llewellyn and Hector Sam and Andy Dibble continues in goal. Steve Roberts is back from injury but it is difficult to see Smith changing the back three of  Shaun Pejic, Brian Carey and Dennis Lawrence. Other News: With captain Michael Simpson out suspended Tony Adams will replace his influential captain with Steve Brown. the other likely change will see Gavin Holligan returning to the side at the expense of Steve Ryan after the striker made a goal scoring return for the reserves during the week.
