Dons were relegated from League One last season and are looking to go straight back up. They finished in fourth, eight points behind third-placed Wrexham and eight points ahead of the Reds.
But manager Mike Williamson knows the gap means nothing in these play-off games.
He said: “"We're going into a tough semi-final against a team who play really good football. "They were really good here, but we know it will be difficult, but it's an exciting challenge.
"I thought Crawley were the better team for large portions of the game when we played them here, but we managed to get the result.
