Hopefully, we can keep our momentum and win at the weekend. At the very least we need to avoid defeat. Accrington have a game in hand and they score for fun, so it's vital for us to stay in the pack at the top. I liked the look of the new lad on Saturday, so hopefully he will add a new dimension to our game and get some crosses in.
I am desperate for Biamou to get a goal or two. He really deserves one. I reckon he was born on an ancient Indian burial ground or something.
I'm going for a win. Probably 1-0 with McNulty (who else?) getting the goal.

3-0 City. McNulty hatty to do bits for my top goalscorer bet.

I would be content with a draw here to be honest, a win would be fantastic.

One change from Saturdays starting line up, LB back in goal.
McDonald on the bench, you cannot drop either centre back after that performance, unless there are injury niggles.
Has to be a win for me, it's too tight between 3rd and 8th, we have to keep pushing on.
0-5 City. McNulty 2, Biamou 2, plus the new lad from the boy band 1.

Can't wait for this, making a weekend of it with some family in Newton Abbott. A win would be a real statement of intent.

It's a lovely little ground, been there a couple of times but not to see CCFC, just watched games whilst I was down there on holiday. I wanted to go to this but we have to do a "family thing", so couldn't go.

Would be great to go on a winning streak, now we're in the automatics we need to start putting a bit of distance between us and the playoffs. I'll go with 2-1, Sky Blues take home the win.

Massive game. Would definitely take a point.

I'd be happy not to lose but again over the moon if we win if results go our way.
I can see him keeping it the same but maybe putting Burge back in depending on injury, looking forward to seeing how JMD does in League 2. If anybody in our team can get a goal out of Biamou would think it would be him judging by the Stoke game.

Is Barrett available?

I never looked on here or anything so didn't know Burge wasn't playing until we got to the Ricoh on Saturday. Why was O'Brien playing?

I thought O'Brien did well.

3-0 or 3-1 to the City. Looking forward to it despite the drive.

Wasn't there, Torch, so only judging on the TV highlights, where he seemed to make a few errors.

* Exeter got off to a blistering start in the League, winning 7 and drawing 1 of the first 8 games in the season before falling to their first defeat against us at the Ricoh.
* In their last 9 games they've won all their 4 home games and lost all 5 away games which has seen them slip out of the play off places.
* For those happy with a point, they've not had a draw at home this season W9 D0 L3
* Their home matches are usually low scoring affairs - they've kept clean sheets in 50% of their home matches, averaging just 0.92 goals conceded. The majority of those came in heavy defeats to Luton (1-4) and Notts County (0-3) who both scored in the first 10 minutes of the match.
* In attack, at home, they average 1.58 Goals scored per game but that is increasing - they have scored 2 goals in each of their last 4 home matches.

No more than Burge makes in an average game, I don't think. Still, I don't care as long as we win.

Its simple if we play anything like we can then we should win.
Desperately need that 2nd goal to make it non nervy.
Im one of the few lucky ones who managed to get a ticket. Really looking forward to us playing.
Physchologically alot more pressure on them, they have dropped down almost out the play off spots. Also we shot then down last time.
We are buzzing hopefully MR gets thrm concentrating on bread and butter now.
1-3

think it was just this thing that seems to be in vogue of giving the reserve keeper a run out in cup games.

Great work with the stats. With this in mind, I’m backing us to win, they’ve lost badly to Notts County and Luton, and hopefully we have the edge after our tie at the RICOH. 2-0 to us, McNulty and Maguire-Drew.

We've got into the habit recently of scoring early first half goals (4 goals inside the first 25 minutes in the last 6 games). If we can do that on Saturday we should have a comfortable game otherwise i feel it will come down to nicking a goal in the 2nd half when the game opens up.

Surely they want Exeter people to go in the home end.

You've got to be kidding! McNulty's going through a lean spell and hasn't scored for one game in a row now.
