Mansfield will be without joing top scorer Kyle Perry through suspension for their top-of-the-table clash with Oxford United at Field Mill next Tuesday.

Perry had scored twice, and also gone very close to scoring twice more, as the Stags led Stevenage 2-0 at home last Saturday.

But the striker was then sent off for putting a boot in Lee Boylan’s face, and Stevenage fought back against ten men in the second half to win 3-2, with Yemi Odubade getting one of their goals.

Perry received a three-match ban for violent conduct.
