Paul Dickov could have a double boost for Oldham’s trip to Yeovil Town tomorrow. Defender Cliff Byrne and keeper Alex Cisak have both returned to training after suffering injuries during last weekend’s loss against Swindon Town. Byrne departed early with an back injury, while Cisak suffered a gash to the forehead and concussion. Of the two, Byrne would be considered more likely to feature after returning to full training with Cisak’s condition monitored on a daily basis.

Yeovil Town will be without Fulham loanee Dan Burn after the defender picked up his fifth yellow card of the season in the 2-2 draw with Walsall. Richard Hinds, who has not started a game since 3 November, is likely to deputise for Burns at the back. Oldham goalkeeper Alex Cisak is a doubt after suffering a head injury in last weekend’s home defeat by Swindon. If Cisak is deemed unfit, Dean Bouzanis, who is available again after suspension, will replace him.

Coming back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at Walsall on Saturday was terrific even though it was not the best of performances. You need to pick up points whenever you can and to score that late equaliser was brilliant. Manager Gary Johnson made some second half substitutions that had a big impact on the game’s result and at the end of the day if the fixture is not going your way you have to make changes. Gary rolled the dice and the substitutes made a difference. The intention has always been this season to have players in the squad that are capable of being close to the starting XI at any point.
