Exeter preview

U's look forward to top three clash

We look ahead to tomorrow's npower League 2  game at home to Exeter City

Team News
United hope to have strikers Deane Smalley and Sean Rigg available again after a groin injury and a cut heel ruled them out of Wednesday's win over Swindon. The pair are back in training and could return to give Manager Chris Wilder interesting choices to make up front where James Constable, Tom Craddock, JP Pittman and Alfie Potter all played their part on Wednesday.

Lee Cox is not quite ready to play so misses out with a groin strain but fellow midfielder Simon Heslop comes back into the squad.

See Chris Wilder and Adam Chapman previewing the game in Yellow Player.

The Opposition 

Exeter are currently second in the table after three straight wins, just one goal better off on goal difference than the U's.

Grecians Captain Danny Coles is lookiong forward to facing United's Number One Ryan Clarke: someone he knows very well:

"He used to live with me when he was at Bristol Rovers and I was at Bristol City, so it will be nice to see that doughnut," Coles told thisisexeter.co.uk. "I'll be coming up for corners looking to score and no doubt I'll give him a bit of stick! He's a good goalkeeper and he will be hard to beat. But I hope it will be a good weekend for us.

"I think it was a bad bit of business when Bristol Rovers got rid of him but, for him, it has probably been a blessing in disguise. It made him more determined to become a better goalkeeper and prove people wrong. He has gone there and established himself as number one, and it is all credit to him. He is a fantastic goalkeeper and deserves to do well."
