Head2Head & Team News - Shrewsbury Town

Well we don't have too much to preview this week with both sides in poor form, both dipping down the league table and both looking for a precious win to raise spirits.

Departing Shrews boss Gary Peters was replaced by caretaker John McMahon on Monday and the new man picks from a full squad with no injury or suspension headaches for his first game in charge.

Captain Ben Davies will continue in midfield after returning from injury last week.

Mark Robins may again make changes after the 'embarassing' display against Accrington last week, and will pick from the same squad of fit players bar one, as 'keeper Rich O'Donnell returned to Sheffield Wednesday yesterday. His place on the bench is likely to go to teenage stopper Mark Oxley.

The continued speculation about a striker coming to the club was finally ended once and for all yesterday when Chairman Denis Coleman confirmed the club are now under a transfer embargo whilst they attempt to keep the administrators at bay.
