ROSSENDALE United head to Stocksbridge Park Steels tomorrow looking to close the gap on the play-off places.
But manager Derek Egan will have had to secure the services of a fifth goalkeeper so far this term with Jean-Paul N'jedbayi suspended and the first choice and reserve stoppers sidelined through injury.
Egan was confident of having a keeper in place in plenty of time, while defender Danny Warrender was expected to have recovered from illness for the trip to the second-placed Sheffield side.
"We went there last year and won when they were up near the top and we were near the bottom," said Egan.
"It would be great if we can go there and get a result.
"We're in a nice position with games in hand but I would rather have points in the bag."
