Emile Sinclair will make his full debut for Crawley in today's clash with Colchester United at the Weston Homes Community Stadium.

Sinclair has been on the bench for all three games since joining from Peterborough United last month, making two appearances as substitute, but replaces Jamie Proctor in the starting line-up.

The striker's inclusion is one of three changes to the team which drew 1-1 with Shrewsbury Town at home last weekend.

Joe Walsh returns in place of Mark Connolly in the centre of defence after missing the previous two games - one because he was on duty with Wales Under-21.

Mike Jones also comes into the side in midfield having been on the bench against Shrewsbury on his return from a one-match ban. He replaces James Hurst with Josh Simpson switching to right-back as a result.

Matt Taylor makes his debut for Colchester after signing on loan from Bradford City yesterday. He comes in at centre-back in place of injured former Reds loanee Tom Eastman.

Colchester (4-2-3-1): Walker; Wilson, Okuonghae, Taylor, Garbutt; Eastmond, David Wright; Gilbey Monakana, Sears; Ibehre. Subs: Cousins, Morrison, Bean, Ladapo, Spence, Hubble, Sendles-White.

Crawley (4-4-1-1): P Jones; Simpson, McFadzean, Walsh, Sadler; Bulman, M.Jones, Adams, Drury; Clarke; Sinclair. Subs: Connolly, Hurst, Torres, Proctor, Rooney, Essam, Maddison.
