Hate to say this but it’s a must win. 12 (9 + 3) cup finals to go.

Ideally, a win of course, but a draw might not be so bad either.

Hull might do us a favour at West Brom, who knows.

Lately, they have drawn against Norwich and Bristol City (away) and won at Sunderland and they do still need points to be safe.

We just can't afford to lose, even though that still won't make it all over for us.

They are Good at the back and good in attack
our Home record lately is one of the best, exception of Leeds, teams come here and lose 😉 crowd will get the lads right up for it, and they struggle with crosses at the back, Bobby Thomas hatrick 😉

They have the 4th best away record in the league so will be a good game no doubt

I am anticipating a good game regardless of the result. I think Sunderland will come looking for a win and will have a positive attacking mindset. Unlike a lot of teams who just want to sit in and defend looking to pinch a goal somewhere along the line and going a goal down doesn't change that. Because a draw would send them away happy.

Unfortunately how we played at Derby wasn't a surprise, as we have seen plenty of performances like that over the last two seasons. But even without Rudoni we have players who are capable of much more. We need to see a reaction, we need to see a strong mindset, a belief that they as a group can make the play offs.

PUSB's keep the faith.

Why is it so very taboo to think a very good team might beat us? I don’t get it.

It's weird. People triggered because a few others don't have a good feeling about today. What difference does it make? The outcome will be decided later and Dave from Holbrooks not feeling it will have no influence whatsoever.

Either way, we back them a much as possible during the 90 minutes. That's all we can ever do.

If they are playing, we need top performances from MVE, Saka, Wright, EMC and Grimes, especially. Dovin on top form too, though I am not at all worried about him. Seems to be very consistent of late

These are the games you look forward to,, couldn’t have a better game to get the derby result out the system, win this one and the confidence for the next 2 is massive

I think we need a performance as a team. Everyone, yes there will be mistakes there always is. But we need that collective effort not three or four carrying the rest or a couple way off the level.
