Pre-match views

First-team manager Jamie Sherwood: “We are expecting a really organised side, they are a team that is pushing to be in a higher division and have the potential to do that.

“We won’t be taking this game lightly, we have prepared this week as we would for any game, there is an expectation that we will come out of the game as winners and that is what we intend on doing.

“We want to get that momentum whether it’s home or away, it’s performances and consistency that we are looking for. 

“The performance last week was more consistent to what we want to do week in week out, and if we can keep that going this week with a little bit more, we will be in a great place.”
