Crawley v Exeter preview

Crawley boss Harry Kewell is likely to make changes for the visit of Exeter following the weekend thrashing by Wycombe.

The Australian saw his side suffer a second-half collapse on Saturday as they slipped to a 4-0 defeat. Midfielders Dennon Lewis and Mark Randall and forward Panutche Camara are among those hoping for a recall. Town are likely to remain without captain Jimmy Smith and midfielder Moussa Sanoh (both hamstring).

Reuben Reid is in contention to return to the Exeter attack after starting the last two games on the bench. Reid has failed to score in his last 11 appearances, but the striker did well when he came on for the final 15 minutes of Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Chesterfield.

Midfielder Lloyd James could also be recalled after losing his starting place last weekend following suspension. Robbie Simpson, Ryan Brunt, Luke Croll and Jordan Tillson remain sidelined.
