0-2. Too many players missing, squad too thin to cope. Even though Armstrong has been quieter these past 2 matches, both him and Maddison out of the game is going to be a big miss
Going to just our luck that a player is going to get injured and a kid have to come on. Very few options now to change our front line if the game plan isn't working.
Really can't see anything other than defeat.
(and this is coming from a normally very optimistic poster)

Will take a draw.
Hopefully with nearly 2k away fans (in a 6k ground) it can spur us on to win but I think we will struggle.

Plan A needs to work and we need for none out of Vincelot, Ricketts, Philips, Lameiras, Murhpy and Tudgay to get injured during the game.

Hoping for a win, would take the draw but expecting a losss for the first time this season. 3 games without a win, can't afford for that to happen too many times and stay in the top 6 !!

3-1 to us. Tudgay with 2 and Lateef comes on with 10minutes to go scoring an absolute blinder. You heard it here first.
Keep it tight at the back then you only need 1 goal to win a game, we have goals all round the squad at the moment (with the players available)
Ricketts
Johnson

Fleck
Tudgay
Ruben

Phillips can chip in with a goal so can Stokes!
Yes its a tough fixture but I can see us sneaking it
We start the game with a point just make sure you don't lose it

I think we'll be one of the bigger teams that Burton have competitively played and with around 1800 City fans there on Sunday.
I would like to think that if we made a lot of noise from the KO, that maybe we could rattle them a bit. Like us they've had a good start but we should be beating these types of teams (They've just come up from the 4th Division). No disrespect intended to Burton.

Reading their forum and it looks like there struggling with players and would take a draw

That can't be true. They've lost a league game this season. Maybe unbeaten at home in 17?

Just bought 3 tickets for this, Sunday Sky game, I think I've caught the bug badly. :|. Should be a nice little day out though, anyone been there before?
(On a side note, taking a West Brom fan to the game who's now been to more Cov games this season than he has Albion, let the conversion begin!)

appointed referee is Peter Bankes, here's hoping that CCFC get fair treatment, as opposed to the drivel that have officiated us so far this season

I think we will win and sorry for saying this but its a must win for me i think as it keep us near the top and give the lads confidence aswell, its too early in the season to be dropping points when close to the top as we all know well struggle to pull it back if we start losing.

Well personally Burton have had a somewhat easier start than us , and even with armstrong out and maddison we still have a relatively strong lineup .
they seem to win by the odd goal , and whilst its a tough game , i see no reason why we cannot go there and take 3 points .
burton 1-2 Coventry

Not being funny, but all these people predicting the line-up for Sunday, what other line up could we possibly have? :thinking about:
This has to be the lineup. Can't really change it even if we wanted to, can we?

Well with our shaky defence it wouldn't be a massive surprise to see Reda, Stokes or Burge replaced with Cook, Martin or HaynesNot being funny, but all these people predicting the line-up for Sunday, what other line up could we possibly have? :thinking about:

Can't see Cook getting a look in until the JPT and Martin for either Reda or Ricketts would be a retrograde step. Only feasible change I could see would be Haynes for Stokes, but this being down to Stokes carrying an injury.

Either way I think it will be a good game. Looking forward to the 2000 strong in a 7000 capacity stadium!
Loss - Disappointing but half expecting it.
Draw - Good result, very happy with that.
Win - Cloud 9 again.
