Not a shock to see Mings rested. Surprised however that Ollie isn’t starting.

Bang goes the clean sheet!

No surprise with the rotation  to be fair. Rather have Mings for Sat.

Not convinced with Olsen but apart from that it's got to be the strongest bench I have ever seen us have. Unbelievable.

Yeah, we'll have greater need of Tyrone's strength against Dark Arts FC.

Most of our squad are going to see a lot of action this month.
Suspect Saturday will look different again.

Stick another central midfielder on top and that bench would probably do fine against most of the league.

Don't do that to me! Combined with Nev's clean sheet comment, I had to double check he wasn't starting.

Looks like another tight first half and then hopefully expansion later.

I think we all know by now that it’s our worst defence for conceding goals but I’m still hopeful we can win. Mings probably needs a break and Pau should add something going forward.

Attacking line up. No messing.

Prefer Ransey on left if Torres is playing.
