Crewe have managed to stabilise after finishing bottom of League One last season.

They have largely done that with a strong defence – in fact they go into this game having not conceded a goal for more than six and a half hours.

Alex Morris was appointed manager at the end of last season but stepped down three weeks ago to become assistant manager on compassionate grounds following a family bereavement.

He has swapped roles with Lee Bell who has won his first three games as interim boss.
