A haul of eight goals in two successive wins has lifted injury-hit Barnet ahead of their trip to Moss Rose to take on struggling Macclesfield.Adam Birchall is almost certain to retain his place after scoring a hat-trick against Lincoln on his return to the starting line-up.

Anthony Thomas should start alongside him, with Cliff Akurang sidelined with hamstring trouble.

Injury-ravaged Sagi Burton had a successful return as skipper in the absence of Ismail Yakubu (match fitness), while Joe Devera should play through shin splints.

If Yakubu does not recover, Ian Hendon could come in for Keith Gillet, who was withdrawn on Saturday after suffering an ankle knock.

Michael Leary returns from a four-game ban and is an option if Bees boss Paul Fairclough decides changes are needed.
