Noble back for Magpies
Notts County will have Liam Noble back in contention against Crawley.
The former Carlisle midfielder missed the Johnstone's Paint Trophy win at Scunthorpe through suspension after collecting his fifth yellow card of the season during the league victory over Gillingham.
Michael Petrasso should also be added to the Magpies squad after the teenage winger this week moved to Meadow Lane on loan from QPR.
Roy Carroll will return in goal but Mustapha Dumbuya's involvement with Sierra Leone will see him miss out along with fellow defender, and club captain, Hayden Mullins who is still nursing an injury.
Josh Simpson and Izale McLeod are expected to shake off injuries for Crawley.
Midfielder Simpson recently recovered from an ankle injury but suffered a hamstring strain on his return to action a fortnight ago, and striker McLeod jarred his knee against Peterborough last Saturday.
But boss John Gregory is confident both will be available and can also welcome back defender Joe Walsh and winger Gwion Edwards, who missed Town's last two matches while on international duty with Wales.
Mat Sadler has extended his loan spell from Rotherham and will continue to deputise at left-back with Ryan Dickson still sidelined by a knee injury.
