Mansfield Town

Manager Adam Murray revealed after his side's 0-0 draw with Matlock Town on Wednesday that he has just one injury doubt for Saturday's visit of the Trotters. Young midfielder Jack Thomas has missed the last three pre-season friendlies with a groin strain and he is also expected to miss out on Saturday. 

Striker Pat Hoban also missed the midweek game with Matlock with a groin strain, but Murray admitted that he left him out as a precaution and the frontman should be available for Saturday. 

The visitors are expected to come into the game at full strength, with exciting forward Max Clayton being available once again after spending the end of last season on the sidelines with a hamstring injury. 

The Trotters could also include goalkeeper Mark Howard in their squad after the former Sheffield United stopper put pen-to-paper on a deal at the Macron Stadium on Wednesday. 

Stags will go into the contest on the back of a four-match unbeaten run in pre-season which has included two wins and two draws. 

Goals from striker Adi Yussuf and midfielder James Baxendale helped the Stags to a 2-0 victory over Rainworth Miners Welfare in the Stags' first friendly before Yussuf and midfielder Mitch Rose scored against Clipstone to ensure a 2-2 draw a week later. 

A 4-3 victory over Carlton Town was secured by a brilliant brace from last season's top scorer Matt Green, an opener from left-back Mal Benning and a late header by forward Jason Law before Adam Murray's men were held to a 0-0 draw by Matlock Town earlier this week. 

Recently relegated Bolton Wanderers on the other hand have only played one first team friendly so far, when they triumphed 2-0 over FC Helsingor during their week-long training camp in Scandinavia. 

Strikers Gary Madine and Jamie Proctor scored the goals for the Trotters who are still in the early stages of their development after new manager Phil Parkinson joined the club from Bradford City. 

The two sides have only met 17 times in their history with the Trotters just edging it on the head-to-head record. 

The last times the sides met was all the way back in 1993 when the teams played out a 1-1 draw at One Call Stadium (then known as Field Mill). 

Stags last beat the Trotters in a home tie in 1991, when they comprehensively triumphed 4-0. 

EFL referee Ross Joyce will take charge of the Stags' first home pre-season friendly and he will be assisted by Mark Jones and Steve Meredith. Dave Plowright will undertake fourth official duties. 

Mr Joyce last officiated the Stags during the 1-1 draw against AFC Wimbledon in September 2015 at One Call Stadium.
