It’ll be the second time Danny Cowley’s side travel to Gresty Road in 17 days as their February 19 clash was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.

However, this time around the Blues could close the gap to the top six to four points after a run of five wins in six matches.

66 GGGGGGGGGGGGOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLll

The confidence is oozing from George Hirst as he meets an Ogilvie cross from the left once again to head home from close range. Two assists for the defender tonight.

Stoppage in play as Harper receives treatment. He’s walking off the pitch now so play should be close to resuming.

Carter goes into the book for a previous foul by the touchline that the referee played advantage to.

Walker comes close to his second as he meets Ogilvie’s whipped cross with a neat back-heel before Richards gets down low and saves well.

Ogilvie comes inches away from scoring goal of the season. Curtis’ whipped free-kick to the far post is taken down beautifully by the defender who strikes a volley on the turn but Richards produces a great save to deny him.

Porter escapes with just a yellow as he cynically scythes down Morrell from behind as the Wales international looks to progress with the ball. Have seen reds given for that.

Ogilvie puts his body on the line twice to prevent Harpers powerful efforts from troubling Bazunu from the edge of the area. He’s been a colossus at the back tonight.

Romeo wins the ball back inside the Crewe half and slides in Walker, whose shot flies well-over.
