Pools are without Sam Collins for tonight's game against Northampton Town as the central defender has been struggling with a thigh injury.

Ben Clark will slot back in the centre of defence alongside Michael Nelson, while Andy Monkhouse is back in the starting eleven.

Joel Porter has shaken off a recent Achilles problem and he starts in attack in partnership with Michael Mackay, with loan signing Liam Henderson named on the bench.
