Latics striker Lee Hughes could be back in the team for the visit of Franchise FC on Saturday after making a good recovery from a groin problem. If he is 100% fit he should take some part in the game but he won't be risked if there is any danger of him suffering any setbacks..

Assistant manager Tommy Wright said, "Hughesy is coming along well and has improved greatly over the last few days. He isn't back in training just yet, but there's still time before the game on Saturday. At this stage I'd say he has got a chance."
