Defensive duo could return

Taylor missed the 2-1 win over Leyton Orient last weekend with a muscle strain but could return to face the Latics.

Jones, who also missed the Os clash, has returned to training following a back problem and is also likely to be included.

Midfielder Liam Sercombe should be fit to retain his place in the starting line-up despite suffering some discomfort on his return from an ankle problem, along with striker Daniel Nardiello who was substituted following a knock.

First-choice goalkeeper Artur Krysiak is nearing a comeback from his thigh problem but will not be risked, meaning Ben Hamer will play the last game of his loan spell before returning to Reading.

The Grecians are currently on a four-game winning streak but are five points off the League One play-off places.
