Shrewsbury vs Walsall preview - Woods back for Shrewsbury
Posted Monday, November 17, 2014 by PA
Shrewsbury have key midfielder Ryan Woods back after suspension to face Walsall.
In-form Woods missed Saturday's 2-0 win over Mansfield but is expected to return for their FA Cup first round replay on Tuesday.
Striker Andy Mangan is still struggling with a minor niggle and is rated touch and go by boss Micky Mellon.
The winners play Preston in the second round with Mellon adding: "It adds a bit of spice to it. It's a great prize for both clubs to go and play against a terrific League One side."
Walsall are waiting on Tom Bradshaw after he missed the 0-0 draw with Peterborough on Saturday with a hamstring injury.
The nine-goal former Shrewsbury striker has a minor tear in the muscle which is usually associated with ballet dancers.
"From what I have been told, it's a ballet dancer's injury. He won't thank me for telling you that," boss Dean Smith told the Wolverhampton Express & Star.
Sam Mantom could also make his first start of the season after he sat out Saturday's Posh draw.
