Stockport manager Gary Ablett again looks set to be without Oli Johnson for the League One trip to fellow strugglers Wycombe on Saturday.

The striker has missed the last two games with a knee injury which is almost certain to keep him on the sidelines.

However, on-loan Reading striker Nicholas Bignall has been passed fit after a hamstring problem.

Defender Johnny Mullins and midfielder David Poole are also available after illness but County head to Adams Park on the back of a dismal run of six successive defeats in League One.

They reside in the drop zone along with Wycombe but Ablett believes it is only a matter of time before their luck starts to turn.

He said: "The players have to remain full of self-belief."
