Notts County defender Stephen Hunt could be fit to face Chesterfield.

He missed the Magpies' 3-0 win at Accrington with a hamstring injury.

Karl Hawley is sidelined with a hamstring problem.

Chesterfield striker Drew Talbot could return from illness. But the Spireites will still be without former Magpies target Jack Lester (knee) and Aaron Downes (knee).

NOTTS: Schmeichel, Thompson, Edwards, Lee, Clapham, Hunt, Westcarr, Ravenhill, Bishop, Davies, Hughes, Rodgers, Hoult, Hamshaw, Facey, Akinbiyi, Canham, Fairclough, Hollis, Troke, Fox.

CHESTERFIELD: Lee, Gray, Breckin, Page, Goodall, Whaley, Niven, Allott, Rundle, Conlon, Small, Talbot, Boden, Madine, Austin, Crossley, Whing, Boshell, Clay.

Simon Whaley: The winger joined Chesterfield on loan from League One Norwich City in mid-January.

He will be a big threat down the right wing against Jamie Clapham, or Stephen Hunt if he is fit, because of his pace and trickery.

He has scored one goal in four league games for the Spireites.

Lee Hughes v Ian Breckin: The Magpies' leading scorer Lee Hughes made a scoring return to action after a three-game ban, in the 3-0 win at Accrington. He will face former Forest centre-back Ian Breckin, who joined Chesterfield in the summer after being released by the Reds.
