Manager Keith Hill is likely to opt for an unchanged line-up as Rochdale travel to Edgeley Park to take on Stockport on Tuesday evening.Dale travel to the in-form Hatters on the back of a convincing 4-0 win at Mansfield which included goals from Adam Le Fondre, Rene Howe and a Gary Jones double.

Goalkeeper Sam Russell is the club's only injury victim after he 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.

The confidence-inspiring weekend win was play-off chasing Dale's second win in seven outings and assistant boss Dave Flitcroft is not expecting an easy ride.

"Stockport are going really well," Flitcroft told said. "I have watched them a number of times, with the games that we had called off, and they are a powerful team.

"When they get forward they do so in numbers and like (Stockport boss) Jim Gannon says 'at the minute they are unstoppable."'
