Their away form is dire but I fancy they'll be a little more determined to perform well after the drubbing we gave their kids a few weeks ago. They've picked up a few wins at home of late but from what I can see and from what I hear, they've not been playing well to get those wins. But keep winning and confidence builds in a team, no matter what the performance is like, so they are dangerous.
Davies, Lawrence and Martin have experience of the fixture, and Clarke played in the drubbing I think, so they'll be ready and know what to expect.
But at home, I'd rate our 11 against any of their current 11 any day. I've said it before, if we fancy ourselves to do something this year, we have to be getting 3 points at home against a team that's currently 15th in the table. Yates is our little Jack Russel in midfield and was buzzing around in last year's game and got in their face (oh how I'm going to miss Keogh). Yates might make the difference by adding a bit of needle, energy and physicality in the middle.
On paper you've got to fancy us to get an easy win but who knows, a red card, an injury, or maybe a poor ref decision can make the difference in these games. So, not wanting to tempt fate, I'll go for a 1-1. They'd be delighted with that I'm sure.
