The trip to St James’ Park will be the Reds’ first competitive away game of the 2023-24 campaign.
The date and kick-off time is to be confirmed.

Crawley reached the third round of last season’s Carabao Cup, beating Bristol Rovers and Premier League outfit Fulham before losing 3-1 at Vincent Kompany’s Burnley.
The two teams last met during the 2021-22 League Two campaign. The Grecians did the double over the Reds that season, winning 3-1 at the Broadfield Stadium in October 2021 and 2-1 at St James’ Park in March 2022.
