Halesowen pre-match news
Manager Gary Norton is likely to start with Steve Lenagh and Carl Francis up front these being the only possible changes to the side that won at Ilkeston midweek.
Defender Jamie Hood is in the squad but fellow defender Danny Haynes is suspended.On loan Nathan Jones is unavailable due to personal commitments. Leon Doughty and Carl Slater look set to continue in midfield with Richard Wardle playing on the right.
Norton is hoping that his strikers can find the net tomorrow as only six of Gresley's last 17 goals have come from his strikers.
"We have struggled for goals since Shaun Harrad left and we have had to rely on the midfielders and defenders to a large extent, said Norton. "Simon Tucker has looked a bit off it in his last couple of games, but he has goals in him. We have made inquiries about bringing in a striker before tomorrow."
Gresley from: Belford, Everitt, Cheetham, Smith, Hood, Wardle, Slater, Doughty, White, Barrett, Francis, Lenagh, Tucker, Alexander, Clarke (gk).
