Albion U-23s play the fifth of their six Group E matches tonight when they host Leicester City at Crawley's Checkatrade.com Stadium, kick-off 7pm.
A win this evening guarantees Albion's progression to the next stage; even a draw will ensure they are virtually certain to advance.
Albion beat the Foxes in the away tie on January 4th through a Connor Tighe goal (after the original match in November was abandoned in the 64th minute following a serious injury to Leicester's Elliott Moore).
Team news: Tyler Hornby-Forbes makes his first start since November and Liam Rosenior and Richie Towell from the first-team squad both feature. There is no place in the squad for Harry Cardwell (although the U-23s have another fixture on Wednesday against Crowborough Athletic in the Parafix Sussex Senior Cup quarter-finals). Connor Tighe returns from injury to take a place on the bench and Ben Hall returns from serving a one-match suspension to also take a place on the bench:-
