Last updated : 17 January 2009 By aussiekeeper
With the Railwaymen now out of the FA Cup manager Gudjon Thordarson can now concentrate on trying to steer the Alex out of the relegation zone.

The match against the Iron will be Thordarson's first league match in charge and the Icelandic manager will be looking for a defensive improvement against third place United.

Crewe Team News:-

Changes could be afoot again as manager Gudjon Thordarson looks for a winning forumula and a team that cuts out defensive mistakes.

Tom Pope, Calvin Zola and Mark Carrington all impressed against a reserve side from Wrexham in midweek and could be considered.
Carrington could come in for James Bailey who had a poor game against Millwall in midweek.

While Zola and Pope could be pushing for a start after their performances in the 6-1 win over Wrexham with Zola netting a brace.

The number one jersey is up for debate again but it seems that Thordarson will keep faith with Steve Collis even though the keeper was at for the first goal against Millwall.


Scunthorpe United Team News:-

Former Physio turned manger Neil Adkins has a near full strengthed side as the Iron look to push the top three teams in League One.

Adkins side secured a valuable 2-1 win against Yeovil midweek to move upto fourth in the league and will be looking to add pressure on Oldham Athletic in third place.

Ben May picked up an injury in during midweek in the 2-1 win and is ruled out of the clash to South Cheshire.
While Kevin Milne and Ian Morris are still ruled out for Iron both with knee injuries.
