Torquay United will be boosted by the return of 10-goal winger Danny Stevens ahead of tonight’s League Two play-off semi-final second leg against Cheltenham Town (Plainmoor 1945).
Mark Yates' Robins head to South Devon 2-0 ahead following Sunday’s home leg win and goals for winger Jermaine McGlashan (27 mins) and striker Ben Burgess (50).
Fit-again Stevens – who was ruled out of Sunday’s first leg by sickness - will bolster Martin Ling’s attacking options in the absence of hamstrung target man Rene Howe, meaning on-loan Walsall striker Ryan Jarvis is set to play in his favoured central role as United bid to claw back a two-goal deficit.
The winners play Crewe Alexandra in the May 27 Wembley final.
Torquay’s last Wembley outing was a 2-0 victory over Cambridge United in the 2009 Conference play-off final . . . on May 17.
Torquay United from Olejnik, Oastler, Ellis, Saah, Nicholson, Lathrope, O’Kane, Mansell, Morris, Stevens, Jarvis; Atieno, Rice, Rowe-Turner, MacDonald, McPhee.
Cheltenham Town from Brown, Low, Bennett, Elliott, Jombati, McGlashan, Pack, Summerfield, Mohamed, Burgess, Spencer; Burgess, Hooman, Smikle, Penn, Duffy, Goulding.
