Based on how Burton have set up for last few games 5 4 1 we look like we are in for lots of passing back and forth across the back trying to prise open a blockade. Not expecting game like Bolton, Peterborough or even Shrewsbury more like Fleetwood.

Wonder if we should try two up front for this game, super Sonny and Alli perhaps, start new partnerships for next season?

Cole and Aitch behind them with Woods as defensive midfield. Niskanen and Rankin on the flanks. Back 3 of Sweeny, Aimo and Jules.

Sinisalo in goal!😄

It’ll be a tough one, burton will play a 10-0-0 formation and will bombard our defence with long balls. We’ll need to be tough and patient, I reckon 0-0 at half time then we eventually win it 1-0 with a late Eisa goal.

It depends on how quickly we can open them up, ie score, and force them to come out and have a go.

If they set up like that we’ll need some trickery and pace to penetrate.

Maybe go 4 4 2 (unlikely given GCs style)

Go for it

Gonna predict a narrow win and it would be nice to see more game time for Ali UTC

Wouldn't it be great to see a convincing, entertaining home win.
