Kuffour missed the Johnstone's Paint Trophy defeat to Exeter on Tuesday with flu but is likely to return the starting line-up. On-loan Bristol City striker John Akinde is set to make way for Kuffour, who will partner Will Hoskins up front.
Rovers have no new injury or suspension worries to contend with and it is unknown whether Patterson will keep the same side that lost to Paul Tisdale's side or make drastic changes to help change the club's fortunes.
Young midfielder Charlie Reece and Ben Swallow made an impact against Exeter and are likely to retain their places in the side while Byron Anthony may drop to the bench, with James Tunnicliffe looking for a recall to the starting line-up.
