Crawley forward Billy Clarke serves the second game of his three-match suspension while midfielder Dannie Bulman (fractured cheekbone) is out. New loan signing Matt Tubbs in cup-tied, having played for Rotherham earlier in the competition. Bristol Rovers team news to follow. The two sides, who drew 0-0 in the initial tie on 7 December, will look to settle their second round replay for the third time. The first attempt on 18 December was abandoned midway through the second half because of a waterlogged pitch, and the fixture was re-arranged for Saturday, 4 January.

The winners of this tie will face a trip to Championship club Birmingham City in the third round on Wednesday, 15 January. The eventual winners of that match will welcome Premier League side Swansea, who knocked out Manchester United, in the fourth round on the weekend of 25-26 January. VIEW FROM THE TRAINING GROUND Crawley Town manager John Gregory told BBC Sussex: "They have been a little bit indifferent. They are a bit hot and cold which is possibly why they are where they are in League Two. "Whenever the game does go ahead they will be fired up and have nothing to lose. "The draw has pitched the winner to travel to Birmingham and it is an opportunity to make extra finance as well. "Maybe me and John Ward should have a penalty shoot-out in the car park to get it sorted and find out who the winner is. I'd back myself on that one."
