The Glovers travel to the Bescot Stadium to face fellow struggler's Walsall after earning a mid-week draw with Southampton.
Even so early on in the season it could be said that this is a relegation six pointer, with both sides finding themselves in the bottom four. Walsall are just one place below Yeovil, so the Glovers will see it as a must win match.
Certain to boost their chances is the return of captain Craig Alcock who has recovered from injury to regain his place in the side at right-back.
However, the Green and Whites have major concerns over influential trio Gavin Williams (ankle), Shaun MacDonald (hip) and Jean-Paul Kalala (knee). If any of them fail to recover from their knocks Luke Ayling will be on hand to deputise after an impressive performance at right back on Tuesday night.
The only other injury doubt involves of Stefan Stam who has picked up an unnamed injury.
In addition, Rob Kiernan has returned to his parent club of Watford after failing to find a place in the side due to injury and international duty. In fact, the midfielder hasn't featured since the Glovers home game against Hartlepool United.
Walsall are sure to be missing the fire power of Troy Deeney and Sam Parkin who both left the Saddlers in the off season. Remaining threat Darren Byfield will miss tomorrow's game due to a knee injury along with midfielder's Steve Jones and Richard Taundry, leaving Walsall somewhat short of attacking options.
Last season Yeovil grabbed a 1-0 victory in snowy conditions with former Walsall striker Sam Williams scoring the winner against his old club.
The game is available to listen to at BBC Radio Somerset on 99.5FM.
