Procter boost for Stanley

Skipper Andrew Procter will return when Accrington face in-form Northampton. The midfielder sat out Saturday's 3-2 victory over local rivals Morecambe due to a one-match ban but he is back in contention to face the Cobblers. Sean McConville could be the unfortunate man to step aside in order to accommodate Procter, but boss John Coleman is unlikely to make any other changes to a winning side. On-loan striker Billy Kee will have to bide his time to secure a place in the starting line-up due to the impressive form of Bobby Grant and Michael Symes. Grant scored his 14th and 15th goals of the season as Stanley twice came from behind to secure all three points against the Shrimps. Defender Leam Richardson is still unavailable due to a groin injury. Stanley have won their last three League Two games and are just three points outside the play-offs with games in hand.
