Exeter v Burton preview
New before the shock League Two on Saturday between the city of Exeter and Burton Albion at St James Park, the team.
Exeter will be strengthened by the return of Captain Bennett Scot when they host Burton.
Captain Bennett missed victory at home 3-2 by the Greeks on Shrewsbury with an ankle injury, then the trip to Accrington last Friday due to the birth of his daughter but he will return to the team of Paul Tisdale to fight against the Milwaukee Brewers.
And the Manager of Exeter has many options, with only absentees long-term Pat Baldwin, Jamie Reid and Jordan Moore-Taylor put away.
Ryan Harley and Alex Nicholls may feature on their own turf for the first time since returning to the club, while Clinton Morrison could make his bow of Greeks at the hearing.
Midfielder of Blackburn that Darragh Lenihan will return to the Burton team on loan.
Lenihan made his first start in the first game of Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink as patron of Brewers against Wycombe on 17 November and drew praise for his performance. The Republic of Ireland International hopes then missed the victory over Luton and the 1-0 defeat at Shrewsbury with a groin problem.
Return of the 20-year-old gives Hasselbaink a dilemma of choice, with Robbie Weir impressive in holding midfield role on his return to the team in the absence of Lenihan.
Centre-half Ian Sharps (foot) could also be in contention after training with the rest of the team this week but Hasselbaink, whose team moves on level points with the Wycombe League leaders if they win in Devon, will wait until Friday to decide whether to play his captain.
Phil Edwards will serve a one match ban while Lucas Akins (ankle) and long-term missing Jimmy Phillips (knee) and Dean Lyness (broken leg) are still out.
