Team news – Exeter City v Hartlepool

Bennett begins up front again

The starting XI remains the same for the Grecians ahead of the visit of Hartlepool United, with Bennett expected to begin the game as a centre-forward with Alan Gow in tow.

Matt Oakley’s omission from the bench due to an ankle injury means a seat amongst the subs for Tom Nichols.

John O’Flynn, on returning from injury, is named amongst the subs.

Sam Parkin, however, misses out as expected as he is not quite ready because of the hamstring complaint that has kept him out in recent weeks.

Exeter City: Krysiak; Butterfield, Baldwin, Coles, Woodman; Wheeler, Doherty, Sercombe, Davies; Gow; Bennett.
Subs (not used): Pym, Moore-Taylor, O’Flynn, Nichols, Keohane, Tillson, Grimes.

Hartlepool United: Flinders, Austin, Dolan, Baldwin, Walton, Poole, Monkhouse, Compton, Duckworth, James, Burgess.
Subs (not used): Rafferty, Franks, Sweeney, Richards, Holden, Rodney, Walker.
