Matt Taylor has made three changes to the Grecians XI which won 2-1 at Huddersfield in the FA Cup first round last Saturday.

Skipper Jack Fitzwater is back after a toe problem and vice-captain Jake Doyle Hayes also returns and Anthony Scully also comes in with Ed James dropping to the bench while Charlie Cummins and Ethan Sutherland miss out as they are away with the Republic of Ireland and Scotland under-21s respectively.

Steve Cotterill has made one change from the Robins side which overcame Halifax 2-0 in the FA Cup last weekend.

Cheltenham Town defender Pierce Sweeney says he is looking forward to hopefully getting "cheered and booed" when he returns to former club Exeter City.

Sweeney left the Grecians after a decade this summer, having made 435 appearances and been club captain.

The 32-year-old turned down the offer of a new contract to stay at Exeter to move up the M5 to the Robins, where he has since played 16 games.

Exeter will aim to leap from 12th in League Two to joint-third by beating Cheltenham in our early kick-off.

The Grecians were in the bottom four at the start of October with just one win and four goals scored in their opening eight matches.

However, they have turned the corner, remaining unbeaten at home in the league, taking 16 points from their seven matches at St James Park while their 2-1 defeat at leaders Salford on 31 October ended a five-match unbeaten run from which Matt Taylor’s side had earned 13 points.

Steve Cotterill’s Robins have gone in the opposite direction, falling off the pace in League Two after picking up 15 points and losing only once in their first eight matches, suffering four defeats in their past six and going down 3-1 at Tranmere last time out in the league.

They have, however, enjoyed success on trips down to Devon, taking seven points from their past four visits, keeping three clean sheets and Town know a win would also take them into the top three.

We may be a touch lighter on fixtures this afternoon but there are still plenty of narratives to talk about.

Our lunchtime game between Exeter and Cheltenham in League Two serves to shine a light on how tight the division is... just four points separate the side in 15th from the automatic promotion places going into this afternoon's games.

What do you make of the division, can anyone stop Salford running away with it and who do you expect to rise from the field to challenge for promotion?

And we have some huge games in League One later too... can Dave Challinor make an impact at Sheffield Wednesday as they seek to leapfrog Plymouth while his old club Stockport can go joint-top with a win against sixth-placed Reading.

Who do you think are on the right path to the Championship?

The calm before the storm...

Salford could open up an eight-point lead at the summit if they can extend their winning run in the league to nine games against Northampton later, but first Cheltenham and Exeter will seek to close on the automatic promotion spots as they lock horns at St James Park in the early game.

At 15:00 GMT Crewe can steal a march on Barnet and Walsall - whose clash was postponed due to international call-ups - if they can overcome Newport.

Grimsby and Swindon will also seek to climb the congested table - with just three points separating 11 sides in the middle of the pack - as they meet in Wiltshire later while second-bottom Colchester bid to stop the rot as they host Gillingham and Rochdale and Port Vale look to pull away from danger as they host York and Accrington respectively.

We also have a late game for you at 17:30 GMT as Fleetwood welcome Tranmere, with both sides seeking to establish themselves in the top-half tussle.

While more than half the clubs in the top four tiers have a blank Saturday and have to get by on exotic international cuisine we're here to get our fix of good old bread and butter.

There are 15 games across League One and Two remaining on the menu and it's an extra special day as the action runs from our lunchtime showdown out west between Exeter and Cheltenham all the way through to an early evening clash between Fleetwood and Tranmere at 17:30 GMT.

Plenty of intrigue and some huge games to come, so let's bring you up to speed.
