Boss Mark Yates has made three changes as he looks to extend Crawley Town’s unbeaten run to six games.
Top scorer Matt Harrold misses out with a knee injury while wide players Gwion Edwards and Lyle Della-Verde drop to the bench.
Into the starting line-up come Lewis Young, Gavin Tomlin and Shamir Fenelon who replaces Harrold up front.
Roarie Deacon returns on the bench after a groin problem but Lanre Oyebanjo (thigh) and Lee Barnard (calf) are still missing while Josh Yorwerth is away with Wales under-21s.
The Reds are unbeaten in their last four home games and have lost just two of their last nine League Two matches.
Exeter are also in good form, going into the game unbeaten in six and having won their last three away.
They make two changes including dropping former Lewes winger David Wheeler to the bench.
Crawley: Preston; Bond, Ashton, Bradley, Dunne; Young, Walton, Sutherland, Tomlin; Fenelon, McAlinden. Subs: McNerney, Edwards, Bawling, Deacon, Della-Verde, Rose.
Exeter City: Olejnik; Ribeiro, Brown, Moore-Taylor, Woodman; Davies, Watkins, Harley, Taylor, Holmes; Stockley. Subs: McAllister, Morrison, Nicholls, Wheeler, Tillson, Grant, Pym.
