Gary Smith is not expected to make too many changes for his first league game in charge of Stevenage.
Smith began his Boro reign against Notts County in the FA Cup nine days ago and named the same line-up he had watched come from behind to beat MK Dons in captain Mark Roberts' final game as caretaker player-manager.
The former Colorado Rapids boss will keep any changes to a minimum and could even name the same team after defeating the Magpies 1-0 in the fourth-round of the cup.
However, defender Phil Edwards, midfielders Stacy Long, Robin Shroot and Chuks Aneke as well as strikers Ben May, Don Cowan and Robert Sinclair are options for Smith should he wish to make any changes.
Stevenage saw their league game match at Notts County postponed on Saturday and will conduct a pitch inspection themselves at 10.30am on Tuesday morning to determine whether this game will go ahead.
Meanwhile, Boro have appointed Gary Phillips as the club's new goalkeeping coach. Phillips, a former assistant manager at the Lamex Stadium, has returned to take over from Ali Uzunhasanoglu who was appointed by former boss Graham Westley in the summer of 2008.
Meanwhile, Oldham captain Dean Furman faces a late fitness test ahead of the re-arranged match.
Midfielder Furman has been ruled out of the Latics' last three matches with a knee injury and will be assessed ahead of the clash, which was put back due to Boro's FA Cup exploits.
Striker Reuben Reid remains on the sidelines with a thigh injury, while 19-year-old centre-back James Tarkowski is poised to start at the heart of defence in Zander Diamond's (hip) absence.
Paul Dickov's side have won just twice in their last 12 npower League One games and had their weekend clash with Leyton Orient postponed due to a frozen pitch.
A final decision on the Stevenage game will be made at 10:30am on Tuesday morning due to fears over the safety over the areas immediately surrounding Broadhall Way, where the pitch has been covered since last Wednesday and declared playable.
