Yeovil could recall fit-again forward Sam Surridge to the starting XI for the Sky Bet League Two match against play-off hopefuls Mansfield.
Surridge, who has 10 goals this season, returned from a hamstring problem to come off the bench in Tuesday night's 0-0 draw against Forest Green Rovers.
Defender Daniel Alfei and midfielder James Bailey (both knee) are continuing their recovery. Midfielder Jake Gray and defender Ryan Dickson (both ankle) remain sidelined.
Mansfield manager David Flitcroft has confirmed trio Zander Diamond, Ricky Miller and Hayden White are all struggling to be fit. Stags captain Diamond has a back problem, while defender White and forward Miller are battling to overcome hamstring injuries.
Defender David Mirfin will miss out as he continues his recovery from a knee operation. Mansfield head to Huish Park in eighth place, just three points adrift of a play-off spot.
Yeovil have failed to score in four of their previous five League Two matches against Mansfield (W1 D2 L2), whilst each of the previous two encounters between the two sides have been goalless draws.
In fact, there have only been three goals scored across the last five meetings between Yeovil and Mansfield - the two fixtures before this run saw a combined 12 goals.
Yeovil are now without a win in five home league matches (D1 L4), their longest run without a victory on home soil since April 2017 (run of six).
Despite going three games unbeaten (W1 D2), Mansfield have won just one of their last 11 League Two games (D6 L4).
