Billy Bingham, George Ray and Harry Davis eye Crewe involvement

Billy Bingham, George Ray and Harry Davis will be hoping to be involved in the Crewe squad for Saturday's Sky Bet League One clash with promotion-chasing Burton.

The trio came through the Under-21s' 3-1 win against Leeds unscathed on Thursday, with Davis (knee) and Ray (ankle) stepping up their return from long-term injuries.

Crewe midfielder Bingham has struggled with a troublesome hamstring for large chunks of the campaign.

Lauri Dalla Valle (ankle) and Ryan Wintle (foot) remain on the sidelines for Steve Davis' men.

Mark Duffy and Stuart Beavon are fit for Burton, despite being substituted during the win against Sheffield United in midweek.

Duffy missed the goalless draw with Walsall after twisting an ankle in training but the winger returned to the starting line-up at Bramall Lane, where he was replaced late on after receiving treatment for a knock.

Striker Beavon was also withdrawn midway through the second half of that game but both substitutions were precautionary.

On-loan Leicester teenager Hamza Choudhury did not get off the bench on Tuesday night but could come into Albion boss Nigel Clough's thoughts should he wish to tinker with his midfield. The versatile Darius Charles is almost fully fit after recovering from a broken leg.
