Crawley Town are ready to welcome Southport to Broadfield Stadium on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Reds have drawn both of the previous games against their opponents, however.
The previous match played between the two at Broadfield Stadium was more than three years back, in January 2007, the Reds carving out a narrow 2-1 victory in a Conference match.
