Tuesday night football returns to St James Park as Exeter City host Crewe Alexandra for the first time in over six years, in a 7:45pm kick-off.
The Grecians will be looking to build on a positive run of results and pick up another important three points in front of the City faithful.
City head into the 7:45pm kick-off after taking seven points from their last three league matches after Saturday's goalless draw at Colchester United backed up a pair of 1-0 wins over Shrewsbury Town and Rotherham United. The Grecians will be keen to turn that solid form into another home win and continue climbing the League Two table.
Matt Taylor's side have shown signs of growing confidence in recent weeks, with three clean sheets in the league providing a platform to build from. City will now look to combine that defensive resilience with the attacking quality needed to unlock a Crewe side who have made an encouraging start to the campaign.
Crewe arrive in Devon sitting third in the table after collecting 21 points from their opening 11 league fixtures. The Railwaymen have been among the division's stronger sides so far and will provide a stern test for the Grecians.
Lee Bell's side head into the contest on the back of a 3-2 home victory over Rochdale on Saturday, having also picked up a 1-0 win away at Swindon Town the previous weekend.
Tuesday's fixture offers Exeter the chance to make home advantage count against one of the early pace-setters in League Two.
Remember, it's our 'Big Bank Tuesday' fixture where tickets are a bargain on the Bank! Adults in advance are just £10, Senior/18-23s just £8 and U18s just £5 in advance!
See you there, Grecians!
Together Against Racism
Tuesday night's match is dedicated to the EFL's Together against Racism campaign.
At Exeter City we are committed to creating an environment where everyone feels welcome and able to enjoy football free from racism and other forms of discrimination.
Our matchday on Tuesday against Crewe Alexandra will be our dedicated matchday where we will show our support for the campaign and reinforce the message that racism has no place in football or society. We will be putting content on our social media and players will be wearing campaign warm-up t-shirts before the match.

Exeter City 1 Crewe Alexandra 1 | March 3, 2020 | League Two
It's been six years since the sides last met. Tom Parkes opened the scoring for the Grecians in the first half, but they were pegged back by Michael Nottingham’s effort after the break in a game where both sides showed why they were in the upper echelons of the Sky Bet League Two table.
