Silkmen sweat on strikers

George Donnelly and Matt Smith are injury doubts for Macclesfield as Brian Horton's struggling side prepare to travel to Bradford.

The forward duo are nursing respective hamstring and knee problems and will be assessed following training on Friday. Midfielder Tony Diagne (groin) may be ready for his first action since Good Friday, while defender Carl Tremarco is hoping knee swelling sustained during training this week will subside and allow him to take part. Defensive duo Paul Morgan (ankle) and Elliott Hewitt (hip) are out for the season along with midfielder Dwayne Mattis (ankle) and goalkeeper Steve Collis is once again struggling with a shoulder problem. Macclesfield are second-bottom of npower League Two, three points from safety after failing to record a win in 20 games since New Year's Eve.
