    Fitness concern for Kee; Marshall could miss out for Cobblers

    Accrington Stanley and Northampton Town do battle in League Two on Tuesday evening. Accrington's on-loan striker Billy Kee looks set to miss out once again. The Leicester forward was ruled out of Saturday's win against Lincoln after picking up a knee injury in training last week and is unlikely to face the Cobblers. Kee returned to the Walkers Stadium to see a specialist and Stanley are waiting to learn the extent of his injury. Paul Mullin and Gary King are expected to lead the line once again, with manager John Coleman unlikely to make any changes to his side. The Lancashire outfit will be looking to make it three consecutive wins after seeing off the Imps 1-0 and beating Walsall in the Carling Cup. Stanley have not played a league game against Northampton since 1961, when they were beaten 2-1 away from home.

    Northampton team news

    Northampton are likely to be without young striker Ben Marshall for their trip to Accrington. The on-loan Stoke forward suffered a knock to his knee in the final moments of Saturday's 1-0 defeat at Chesterfield and could be replaced by fellow loanee Romone Rose. Ryan Gilligan is set to retain his place in the Cobblers midfield after returning to action following a slight knock. However, manager Stuart Gray still has to cope with a number of injuries, with Luke Guttridge, Danny Jackman (both knee), Liam Davis (foot) and Gary Mulligan (ankle) all currently sidelined. The Cobblers have still yet to score this season and will be looking for their first win of the 2009/10 campaign on their visit to the Crown Ground.
