Brown set to start

The keeper ended Tuesday`s 4-0 victory over Bradford nursing the minor problem but, having rested on Wednesday, returned to training on Thursday.

Midfielder Dave Bird managed to make a 20-minute cameo at Whaddon Road having been struck down with illness leading up to the encounter but he has now recovered fully and has also returned to training ahead of the New Year`s Day fixture.

Winger Josh Low remains the only absentee as he recovers from his hamstring injury.

Town climbed into the play-off places with Tuesday`s triumph but know they will be in for a much sterner test when fifth-placed Wanderers come to town, although victory would move the Gloucestershire club to within a point of their promotion rivals.
