Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Gillingham & Crawley Town face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the EFL Trophy. All the pre-match information is available here!
It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Carabao Cup.

Crawley Town form and stats
Crawley Town's mission in EFL Trophy last season failed in the group stage.Crawley Town have only collected 13 points from their away games in the League Two, after 1-10-7 (18 played). Travelling has not been lucrative for the away team as they have returned home without a win in 15 away games in a row.
The manager J. Yems was unhappy after their last game, a Carabao Cup match played at their home ground The People's Pension Stadium. Crawley suffered a 1-2 loss to Millwall. That result followed a home victory 3-0 versus Oldham Athletic in the League Two.
The schedule is very tough for Crawley Town now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A League Two game at Port Vale is waiting in only four days.
The visiting Crawley Town have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 21 goals from 18 games. Crawley have conceded 28 goals in these games.
