Macclesfield will again be without three key members of their first-string for the derby clash with Bury.

Trio out for Silkmen; No fresh concerns for Shakers

Macclesfield will again be without three key members of their first-string for the derby clash with Bury. Midfielder Izak Reid is yet to overcome an ankle injury which has seen him miss the Silkmen's last two games. Left-back Carl Tremarco will also play a watching brief as he bids to overcome a similar issue, while Hamza Bencherif is still sidelined. Ricky Sappleton and Ben Wright could return after missing Tuesday's 1-1 draw at Accrington. Saturday's clash will be assistant coach Gary Simpson's second in charge since Keith Alexander sadly passed away.

Bury news

Bury boss Alan Knill has no fresh injury concerns or suspensions to contend with for the trip to Moss Rose. The Shakers have drawn their last five games which has seen them slip into the play-off places at a crucial stage in the campaign. They sit eight points off leaders Rochdale and have stumbled below Bournemouth who occupy second automatic promotion spot. Paul Scott is still struggling with a knee injury which has kept him out of the Shakers' last three games. Damien Allen (groin) and Danny Carlton (Achilles) are both long-term absentees.
