Bury have won only one of their last 12 games and are five points above Town in League Two.
A win for Gary Peters' men would be a significant step in the quest to draw clear of the relegation fight. It is important that Town string together some sort of run to push them up the table and instill some sort of sense of dignity over this season's achievements.
Bury have a host of selection problems, and are missing top-scorer Dwayne Mattis. First choice centre half John Fitzgerald is also missing as he is with the Ireland u-21 squad.
For Town, Martin O'Connor is available after suspension, and could fill the midfield void vacated by Jamie Tolley, he is up against Dave Edwards who was rested on Saturday.
