There was a late change for Pools at Exeter City as Peter Hartley suffered a hip injury in the warm-up and was replaced in the starting eleven by Steve Haslem.

Chris Turner had intended to name an unchanged eleven but Haslem will now come in at right back, with Neil Austin switching to left back.

This will now leave just six players on the bench for Pools.

Ritchie Humphreys continues in the centre of midfield alongside Antony Sweeney, while James Brown again starts out on the right wing.

Denis Behan and Adam Boyd are named up front, with Bjornsson and Larkin on the bench
