Chester City boss Bobby Williamson will have Kevin Ellison at his disposal for the clash with Notts County on Saturday.Ellison was made to serve a three-match ban after being dismissed for violent conduct in his side's 4-0 defeat at home to Rochdale.

While serving his suspension the 28-year-old winger looked as though he was on his way to Stockport but the move eventually fell through.

Defender Paul Linwood is expected to retain his place in the starting XI after shaking off a groin injury in time to feature in his side's 6-2 defeat at Dagenham in midweek.

Meanwhile, on-loan Liverpool striker Craig Lindfield will play his final game before he is expected to return to Anfield, while Nathan Lowndes remains sidelined with the thigh injury which has kept him out for the last two months.

Under-fire boss Williamson will be hoping his side can bounce back from a devastating run which has seen them go without a win in their last 11 games.
