Match Preview: Mansfield Town vs Exeter City

A look ahead to the game at the One Call Stadium

MANSFIELD TOWN VS EXETER CITY
SKY BET LEAGUE 2
ONE CALL STADIUM
TUESDAY 24TH OCTOBER 2015
KICK-OFF: 7:45PM


EXETER CITY look for a second consecutive away victory when they visit Mansfield Town on Tuesday evening.

A win at the One Call Stadium would be the best-possible follow-up to the memorable victory at Home Park, and the Grecians will have captain Matt Oakley, Craig Woodman and Lee Holmes all pushing for a start. Christian Ribeiro is likely to be included from the off after Jamie McAllister's early injury in the derby, but Will Hoskins and Christy Pym are out.

Mansfield are without captain Nicky Hunt, who is out for two months after picking up a hamstring problem in training last week. Fellow defender Liam Marsden is back from his loan at Guiseley and is in contention for a starting place.




This fixture is all-ticket for visiting fans, but City fans can purchase for collection at the One Call Stadium up until noon on Tuesday.
