Paul Tisdale has brought in defensive powerhouse Michael Bostwick and seasoned midfielder Ed Upson. The former Exeter boss will have few qualms throwing both straight into his starting XI, as he searches for a formula to take his side away from trouble. Craig Eastmond is suspended, so Rob Milsom could partner Alistair Smith in midfield, meaning Ben Wyatt will fill in at left-back. Coby Rowe is a doubt, so Louis John will play alongside Ben Goodliffe in central defence. Reserve goalkeeper Bradley House is currently sidelined.
