New signing Fiston Manuella will have to be content with a place on the bench again for the visit of Hednesford tonight as Crawley boss Francis Vines refuses to change a winning team.
Manuella arrived at the Broadfield Stadium from Farnborough Town last Friday and was an unused substitute in Saturday's 1-0 win at Chippenham, a result which sent Reds four points clear at the top of the Dr Martens premier division.
Vines believes the 23-year-old midfielder will have an important role to play during the title run-in but will resist handing him his debut as Crawley go for their seventh straight win.
He said: "Fiston will be very useful as he is a different kind of player to those we already have at the club. He is a very tall lad who doesn't mind putting himself about so hopefully he will prove an intimidating presence in midfield.
"There is no doubt he will have a role to play over the next couple of months but it is very hard to change too much at the moment as things are going so well."
Charlie MacDonald could replace Joff Vansittart up front after serving a one-match ban.
