Mark Yates set to name same Crawley side for Northampton clash

Crawley manager Mark Yates is expected to retain the same team which beat Bristol Rovers on Saturday when his side host Northampton in League Two.

Lanre Oyebanjo and Joe McNerney remain sidelined, both owing to knee injuries.

Jon Ashton had recovered his fitness on time to come off the bench during Saturday's 2-1 win but is not expected to make Yates' starting XI on Tuesday.

Beyond Oyebanjo and McNerney, Yates has a fully fit squad from which to choose.

Midfielder Joel Byrom and striker Marc Richards are injury concerns for Northampton.

Both players are nursing knocks after Saturday's win against Notts County and a check will be made on their fitness.

Sam Hoskins missed out at Meadow Lane with a minor problem and the forward will be back in the squad that travels to West Sussex.

Defender Ryan Cresswell is fit again after a groin injury and will be involved again but Ricky Holmes remains absent, although he is expected to be back training by the end of the month.
