Rochdale manager Keith Hill could make changes as he seeks to find a winning formula for his side at League Two strugglers Mansfield.Dale's play-off bid has been severely undermined in recent weeks following the departure of striker Glenn Murray and a dismal run of five straight home defeats.

Last weekend's 1-0 loss at the hands of Chesterfield at Spotland left Hill bitterly frustrated and he could now swing the axe.

Hill has no new injury or suspension concerns and goalkeeper James Spencer is expected to continue between the posts in the absence of Sam Russell.

Russell sustained a broken finger in the 2-1 defeat against Lincoln on February 9 and is expected to be sidelined for at least another three weeks.
