GRIMSBY Town will further assess Sam Hatton's knee injury after the defender limped off in the Bank Holiday Monday victory over Hyde.
The 25-year-old was forced from the field after blocking a late shot and tweaking his knee in the process.
He was replaced by Paul Bignot, who now looks set to regain his place after initially being rested for the victory in Greater Manchester.
Joint boss Rob Scott explained: "Sam blocked a shot late on and he tweaked his medial ligament in doing so – so we'll have to assess that.
"Paul Bignot performed well on Saturday and did well again after coming on for Sam.
"It's always difficult coming on as a full-back in the dying embers of the game, but he did what he had to do.
"That's the beauty of having two players of equal standing – it's just about who's available and playing better at the time.
"We wanted to give Paul a rest on Monday and it looks as though he'll have to come in again, but hopefully Sam won't be too long out of the game – we'll just assess it as we move forward."
