Scunthorpe could be given a double boost if wingers Mark Duffy and Andy Barcham are passed fit for their trip to Wycombe.

Duffy, 25, and Barcham, 24, were absent when Scunthorpe were dispatched 5-0 by Barnsley in their final friendly but both could return when the Iron kick-off the new league campaign at Adams Park on Saturday. Boss Alan Knill told the club's official website: "Mark trained on Tuesday and also trained on Monday too. "He picked up a minor knee problem in training last Thursday. He'd just struck the ball and then came down and jarred his knee a little bit. He's okay now though. "Andy Barcham just has a knock on his foot. We'll see how he is on Thursday but we're hopeful."
