Evans to ring the changes as Stags host Guiseley



Posted Friday, December 01, 2017 by PA

Mansfield manager Steve Evans will make changes against Guiseley in the FA Cup.

Evans was not happy with the second-half performance against local rivals Chesterfield and he has said he will make around four or five changes for the second-round tie.

Calum Butcher has strong claims for a recall after the midfielder scored a hat-trick in a friendly at Clipstone in midweek while the likes of Krystian Pearce, Paul Anderson, Alfie Potter, Will Atkinson, Bobby Olejnik and Jimmy Spencer are also options.

Lee Angol has been out for a month with a knee injury but is fit again and could be involved while fellow striker Kane Hemmings is expected to resume training on Friday after missing the 2-2 draw with the Spireites with a slight calf strain.

Guiseley will be without John Rooney for the visit to Field Mill.

Rooney picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in last week's 2-0 loss to Sutton and he now serves a one-match ban.

Kayode Odejayi and Lee Molyneux were withdrawn at half-time in that game and boss Paul Cox must now decide whether to keep the faith or make changes.

It is an extra special game for Cox as he returns to the Stags for the first time since his three-and-a-half-year managerial spell ended in 2014.
