Match Preview
Batt in line for debut Shaun Batt will be added to the Crawley squad for the visit of Morecambe. Batt has joined the Red Devils on a month's loan from Millwall and could be set for an immediate debut. Fellow strikers Karl Hawley and Billy Clarke are also available after they were cup-tied against Stoke on Sunday. But right-back David Hunt is set to miss out with the foot injury he suffered in a challenge with Rory Delap which saw the Potters midfielder sent off. Scott Neilson came on for Hunt and is likely to start against the Shrimps. First-choice goalkeeper Scott Shearer needs a knee operation so Watford loanee Rene Gilmartin, who started Sunday's 2-0 defeat, will make his league debut. Morecambe defender Will Haining is an injury doubt for the re-arranged trip to Crawley. Haining was replaced at half-time during the weekend draw at AFC Wimbledon and could miss out against the Red Devils due to a tight hamstring. Andy Parrish stepped in for Haining against the Dons and is in line for a first start following an absence of his own with illness in recent weeks. Shrimps boss Jim Bentley is boosted by the presence of winger Izak Reid in his squad for the first time this calendar year. Reid has endured a lengthy spell on the sidelines with a hernia problem but is now back in full training. Centre-back Paul Scott remains a long-term absentee with a serious knee injury.

Match Report
Shrimps hold Crawley Morecambe were made to soak-up extreme second-half pressure in holding out to claim a hard-earned point at promotion-chasing Crawley. Andrew Fleming drove Morecambe ahead with a fine half-volley in the 21st minute, but Crawley hit back to equalise through Scott Neilson who blasted home shortly after the interval. Crawley defender Kyle McFadzean had a header parried onto the bar by keeper Barry Roche before Fleming gave Morecambe the lead with a first-time shot into the roof of the net from 14 yards. Danny Carlton should have extended the Shrimps' advantage on the half-hour when put through by Lewis Alessandra, but wastefully put his left-foot shot wide. Neilson levelled three minutes after the break with an unstoppable drive from the edge of the area having had a goal-bound shot parried by Roche moments earlier. Striker Billy Clarke had a free-kick saved and Sanchez Watt shot wide as Crawley dominated possession, but Morecambe held firm.
