Plymouth manager Paul Sturrock is set to stick with his winning line-up for the home Championship clash against Scunthorpe.

Already without defenders Chris Barker (calf) and Reda Johnson (knee), Sturrock's back four problems were exacerbated by an injury to emergency centre-half Kari Arnason (hamstring) during last Sunday's 1-0 home defeat by Nottingham Forest.

Arnason's replacement was on-loan Manchester United central defender James Chester, who kept his place to make his first start for Argyle in the 2-1 victory at Peterborough.

The win was the Pilgrims` first of the season and ended a seven-match losing sequence.

Rory Fallon is likely to retain his place in attack after marking his return to the side at London Road with a goal.

Fit-again Darcy Blake and Jim Paterson are also set to continue on the flanks.
