One of the toughest away games all season and their caretake manager is looking to get the team promoted. Ourselves will be happy with a top 4 finish and we've started the season on a high. But the home side is flying and it's going the be extremely difficult to stop them. Alex has done an amazing job to transform this outfit and their looking favorites to win the trophy. All the small things he can do to improve this team is done and they look like an outstanding outfit. Great secondary on most players and some different in quality between the two sides. We've already lost once to Wolves this season when we faced them in the cup but hopefully we're able to perform better in this one. Jaïro Riedewald got injured when we lost to The Blades in the cup game we had midweek and he'll be out for four games. A big blow for us but we're looking to Joshua Laws and Xavier Amaechi to step up when Riedewald is out with injury. Our two auction signing, Lewis Hall and Savinho, is still finding their feet at the club and they've yet to impress the fans. They are quality players and we expect more from them. These are the kind of games they need to perform if they want to be successful at the club.
I have got no idea of what is happening as in the league we are terrible with 3 played and just a draw and two defeats, yet in the cup we can't stop winning! If only what is happening in the cup would transfer to the league.
We are looking to change we reinforcements by bringing in a loan middy from Liverpool who will hopefully improve us but unfortunately we don't get him in time for this game.
To make matters worse we face WBA away who are a team down at the bottom with us and they will be fighting to get their first win as well so it just never gets any easier.
Team wise we do look stronger in midfield and up front but that doesn't always count in these games so we need to make sure it does if we can. We have a full squad with no injuries or suspensions, so should be able to field a side that can hold it's own and maybe take some points.
Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Crystal Palace
Another bloody home game for our team this will be our sixth out of seven so far. As Ed says we have already beaten Palace in the cup but it's always a bit of cat and mouse between us in terms of how we will setup. Hopefully we have guessed correctly and can bag another three points.
They will be missing Riedewald which helps us whilst we have a full squad to pick from. The lads look a little tired after midweek though so rotation will be in order.
We're top in the very early table but Palace will jump above us if they win. It's too early to be looking at standings anyway but I expect Palace to be there and challenging come end of season so it'd be good to get a win to keep the advantage in this one. Who knows how vital it could be later on.
