For no better reasons other than the fact that we are away and our incredible run of wins has to end at some point, I think it will be a draw. I'm going 2-2.

Obviously I'm hoping for a seventh successive win. It would be incredible but we are capable of achieving it, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Think we will revert to 3 at the back for this one.

Take a draw!

But a win would take off some pressure of sheff utd and stoke games.

I’m hoping Torp will be back for this one. Maybe even Rudoni on the bench?

I’ve watched their last two games. Kabore, their wingback on loan from Man City, is a good outlet for them.
They should’ve beaten Middlesbrough yesterday…Moore missing a sitter with his head.

Against Oxford they weren’t so good and their home form isn’t brilliant. They actually looked better after Doyle got sent off.

Here’s hoping Welsh pride gets the best of them/their TV show demands it, and they field a full strength team vs Cardiff during the week.

Yes but you're not allowed to mention it because someone will get upset.

Groin strain, unsure if will be ready. Doyle suspended, and his replacement went off injured yesterday after 20mins.

Would be a new club record if we can win here to make it 7 in a row.

Will be a hard time I think for us but I’ve been saying that for weeks now

Think we will win. Wrexham poor at home and they have 3 games in 6 days with a fair few injuries and suspensions already. 0:2 and a 7th win in a row and more pressure on Parkinson.

MVE is going to be a big loss, no long throws

Got a weird feeling here, they’ve got some good players. Im not sure if its the classic Coventry mentality we might lose, we’re usually quite poor in Wales. But Im gonna go for a 1-1

I think we will win.

They ended with a defence of

Max Cleworth, Hyam and Dan Scarr.

EMC, Sakamoto, Wright and BTA will run ring saround them.

I do think they will pose a fair few issues going forward though,

We should be able to go all at them and overwhelm them if we are on our game.

I really don't want to see any cucking about with 5 at the back. Stick with a similair line up as yesterday, hopefully with Torp back, and a capable KKH in for MvE.

Another three game week (well 8 days) coming up and a long trip. I wouldn’t be surprised to see us go with Simms and a back 3.

I was surprised how good we were against pompey for 85 mins should have been 4 or 5-1 that game
Back on it

Not having MVE will change are attacking play slightly. As we have been so effective from long throws

can anyone else in the team do them ?

They've got a Cup game against Cardiff on Tuesday. Hopefully that takes it out of them.

Thomas can but they'd be less effective without him in the box

It'll be interesting to see how they manage their week. Realistically they'll want to get through to the next round and Cardiff are hardly slouches given how they've started the season so I can see them going near enough full strength.

Thought Watford broke through our midfield too easily yesterday.

Will be interesting if Torp is deemed fit or not; maybe worth keeping him on the bench with Sheffield and Stoke the week after.

If so think it’s three at the back just whether we go 3-5-2 or 3-4-3.

As much as I’d love to give Wrexham a hiding a point wouldn’t be a bad result.

This could be “ our week “ , to put clear daylight between us & M/borough .
A Welsh Derby played before our game , so we have extra recuperation time , our midfield reinforced with Torp coming back in & now Jamie adding a goal to his game , with then the high possibility of Watford beating a struggling ( from what their fans are saying ) , M/borough on the Saturday …..
