Notts County will take on Mansfield Town in the League Two at Meadow Lane on Saturday. The hosts are the league leaders with 24 points after 12 rounds, whereas Mansfield are placed fifth in the standings.
Notts County are heading into this fixture on the back of a defeat against Derby County in the mid-week Football League Trophy fixture. They have otherwise lost only one out of their last five games.
Mansfield are unbeaten this season and will be confident of taking the challenge to Notts County in this away game. However, they have accumulated far too many draws - two more than any other team in League Two - to really convert that run into a higher finish in the table.

Mansfield Town team news
Mansfield have not scored in their last two League Two matches, but James Gale managed to score two goals in the EFL Trophy game on Tuesday night. This performance could lead to the 21-year-old getting a start instead of Will Swan as the striker.
Ollie Clarke faced a tough challenge in the game against Wimbledon last weekend, resulting in him needing five stitches in his ankle. This injury leaves his participation in the game this Saturday uncertain.
Mansfield predicted XI: Pym; Bowery, Flint, Brunt, Cargill; Lewis, Reed, Maris, Keillor-Dunn; Swan, Akins.
