Crewe Alexandra will face Birmingham City at Mornflake Stadium on Saturday at 3pm in what Kenny Lunt expects to be another challenging fixture against strong opposition.
Lunt, the Club's Player Development Manager, said the Blues are expected to bring a strong squad to South Cheshire, offering a similar level of competition to Stoke City's visit last weekend, which ended in a 1-1 draw.

Joel Tabiner has returned to training after being withdrawn as a precaution during Crewe's 3-0 midweek victory at Telford.
Lunt's Expectations
Lunt emphasised the importance of defensive organisation while highlighting Crewe's ambitions to play attacking football. "We're going to be up against really top-quality players from a very big Club, and we'll have to be organised," he said. "I want us to be one of the fittest teams in League Two again, and play exciting, attacking football."
