Team news for clash with Tranmere Rovers

Paul Underwood is unlikely to feature in Saturday's important clash with Tranmere due to an injury he picked up last week at Colchester. His absence means that Peter Holmes, Michael Leary or possibly even Enoch Showunmi will fill in for him.

Ahmet Brkovic should be fit enough to feature after missing last week's goalless draw at Layer Road, but Perrett is still out with a groin strain. Paul Hughes probably won't feature either.

However, the good news for Hatters fans is that Ian Sharps and captain Jason McAteer are likely to be unavailable. Sharps missed the LDV Vans clash with Oldham midweek, and McAteer is suffering from a hamstring injury.
