Alister "Ali" Crawford (born 30 July 1991) is a Scottish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Hamilton Academical.

He made his league debut on 13 January 2010, against Dundee United, and spent a loan spell at Bo'ness United during the first half of the 2010–11 season. In May 2011, he signed a new two-year contract with Hamilton. In June 2012, Crawford announced that he was willing to prove his worth at the club following a spell of injury. On 28 August 2012, Crawford scored the only goal of the game as Hamilton beat Partick Thistle 1–0 in extra time, and he later spoke of his desire to help "kick-start" the season. Crawford signed a new two-year contract in July 2013. At the start of the 2013–14 season, Crawford publicly stated that the new synthetic pitch at New Douglas Park would give Hamilton an advantage over their opponents.

In April 2014 he was selected to the 2013–14 Championship PFA Scotland Team of the Year, alongside Hamilton teammates Ziggy Gordon and Anthony Andreu. In October 2014 he signed a new contract with the club, to last until the summer of 2018.

In September 2016 it was suggested by Hamilton manager Martin Canning that Crawford should play for the Scottish national team. In November 2016 club captain Michael Devlin said that the team hoped that Crawford would not leave the club in the January 2017 transfer window. In December 2016, Canning said they wished to keep Crawford until the end of the 2016–17 season.
