Pre-match views from the Match Thread:

berksimps: “On paper we should have a good team and a strong bench. There is no getting away from the fact that we need to score goals and start winning. Hope and expect three points today. Come on City.”

gijsbert_bos: “Feeling surprisingly optimistic about this. If we can keep up our level of performance from the last couple of games, we should be able to get a win. Hoping for a goal each for Taylor and Draper.”

Impish: “A rare away day for me today, letting the away coach travel take the strain. Looking forward to seeing the Imps and my brother travelling up for the game from Somerset.”
