The Stags and Crawley played out a thrilling 3-3 draw when the sides last met back in December.
Defender Ryan Sweeney had given the amber and blue an early lead, before three quickfire goals from the visitors in the second-half looked to have secured all three points.
However, George Lapslie’s effort and Andy Cook’s stoppage time equaliser ensured the spoils were shared.
The referee for Saturday’s game will be Thomas Bramall, assisted by Paul Lister and Darren Blunden.
