No issues for in-form Accrington ahead of Exeter clash

Accrington will hope to secure promotion to League One with victory over Exeter at the Wham Stadium.

John Coleman’s side have won 15 of their 17 league matches since the turn of the year to sit three points clear at the top of League Two, with two games in hand over second-placed Luton.

Maximum points against fourth-placed Exeter will seal promotion to the third tier with five matches remaining and extend their winning run to eight successive matches in the process.

Coleman is likely to name the same side which defeated Colchester 1-0 last Saturday.

Exeter will leave it as late as possible to decide whether striker Robbie Simpson is fit enough to feature.

Simpson limped off at half-time during the Grecians’ 3-2 win over Cambridge and did not train on Thursday.

If the striker is unavailable he is likely to be replaced by Matt Jay, who came on as a substitute to net his first goal for the club against the U’s.

Ryan Harley (unspecified), Lee Holmes (ankle) and Kyle Edwards (knee) remain on the sidelines, while captain Jordan Moore-Taylor has been ruled out for the rest of the season.
