The seven-goal striker missed Tuesday`s 2-2 draw with Port Vale as he continued to struggle with tonsillitis, but he trained on Thursday and manager Graham Turner expects him to be in contention.
Defender Mat Sadler, who conceded the penalty from which Vale equalised, emerged from the clash with a dead leg but is also expected to be passed fit.
Midfielder Sean McAllister has resumed training again following his hernia operation while striker Nathan Elder (knee) continues to make progress after his return from a lengthy lay-off. Although the trip to Plainmoor comes too soon for either of them to be involved.
Shrews striker Jake Robinson is allowed to line up against his parent club as part of the deal which took him to Torquay on loan in January.
