Crewe midfielder Billy Bingham is hoping to make his first appearance since the end of August in the FA Cup tie against Eastleigh.
Bingham has been sidelined for nine weeks due to a hamstring injury but returned as an unused substitute in last week's victory against Sheffield United and could feature.
Teenage midfielder Adam King, defender Stephen Kingsley (both Swansea) and goalkeeper Daniel Nizic (Burnley) have all been given permission to play by their parent clubs, but on-loan Liverpool forward Harry Wilson has not.
Midfielder David Fox (cracked vertebrae), defender Harry Davis (knee) and goalkeeper Dave Richards (foot) remain sidelined.
Eastleigh will play their first competitive game against a Football League side when they travel to Gresty Road but they could be without James Constable.
The former Oxford striker injured his back in training and boss Chris Todd says he will assess the 31-year-old before the game.
Midfielder Matthias Fanimo is cup-tied having previously been involved in this year's competition with Bishop's Stortford but Tony Lee has returned from his loan with AFC Totton to bolster the Spitfires ranks.
Lee Cook, an FA Cup semi-finalist with Watford in 2003, is definitely out with a shoulder injury.
