I would be astonished (and delighted) if we won this one. They’ve got all their key players back, our midfield is massively exposed, we don’t know if Ollie will make it, and we never beat them at their place. Massive ask for us.

We need 4-6 points from the next 3 games. A win on Sunday would be a good start but think it'll be a draw.

We don't draw many games do we.

My standard Cholmondley Warner ones on the rare occasions I start one.

I think we'll be looking at a defeat there. We've never won at their new council house, and we've no midfield. If Watkins is out, that makes it worse.

Is Ramsey out ?

No idea on this - could be 4.0 either way. And anything in between

I have a badish feeling but then again they are so inconsistent

Nothing out from any pre-match press conference yet, but I'd say it's 100% certain he won't be playing.

If we were to get a draw it would be a good result.

On that basis and assuming Watkins is out i'd switch to micro strikers and go -

-------- Martinez --------
Cash Konsa Torres Digne
---- Luiz -- Irogbunam --
Tielemans ----- -- Zaniolo
--- Bailey ---- Diaby ----
