It might be early days, but Oldham Athletic are already four points adrift of safety. The Latics' grim start to the season continued with a 4-0 defeat at Leyton Orient last time out and it's difficult to see Keith Curle's side beating the EFL's trap door this season, while the off-field situation remains. This match, therefore, represents as good an opportunity as Hartlepool United will ever have to pick up their first away points of the season. Dave Challinor's side hold the quirky distinction of sitting fifth in League Two, despite having lost all three of their games on the road. Jamie Sterry and David Ferguson have looked excellent so far this season for Pools and the wing-back duo could run riot at Boundary Park. 0:3
Dylan Bahamboula should be back from international duty and could come into the XI here, along with Harry Vaughan, who was a half time substitute last time out. Withdrawn forward Jordan Cook and target man Mike Fondop are hoping to make their Hartlepool debuts, after signing in the week due to the unfortunate injury to Millwall loanee Tyler Burey. Gavan Holohan missed the last two games with a muscle problem, so Matty Daly should keep his place.
