Farsley Celtic v Forest Green

Relegation-threatened Farsley Celtic will travel to the New Lawn with the hopes of overcoming Forest Green and walking away with all the spoils.

Rovers have fallen off the pace in the play-off race and will look to secure the highest possible finish in the Premier standings.

Mark Jackson (ankle) is a definite absentee for Jim Harvey's men along with James Knowles (suspension).

Ryan Serrant and Georges Santos (ankle) are both doubtful along with Amjad Iqbal (hamstring).

Meanwhile, Harvey refuses to underestimate his side's lowly opponents.

He told BBC Radio Gloucestershire:"They're fighting for their lives. Yes, they've had a couple of bad results - maybe morale's not what it could be at their club - but they're really desperate for the result.

"We've got a few injuries, but it's really important that we win because we want to finish as high as we can so there's a lot to play for both teams.

"I'm not anticipating a footballing game, it'll be a real battle."

Anthony Tonkin will boost the Rovers squad as he returns from a ban while Jamie Pitman and Simon Clist are both doubtful.
