New loanee Ryan Yates could make his Shrewsbury debut after signing on deadline day.

The midfielder joined from Nottingham Forest on loan for the rest of the season and will be in Paul Hurst's squad to face Bury.

Striker Stefan Payne may also make his bow having joined from Barnsley for the remainder of the campaign before Tuesday's deadline.

Alex Rodman is fit again after a hamstring injury but Ajay Leitch-Smith remains sidelined.

Bury are expected to make changes after a busy few days in the transfer market.

On Tuesday they recruited Sylvain Deslandes from Wolves and Tom Beadling from Sunderland, while goalkeeper Joe Murphy has also joined the club.

Neil Danns, Tom Soares and Jacob Bedeau all left, moving to Blackpool, AFC Wimbledon and Aston Villa respectively.
