Hardest game yet. Away from home against the form team (along with us).

CCM had wholesale changes in the off-season and City are a basket case under Rado, so I actually don't think we've been properly tested yet.

Will need a very disciplined performance in midfield and defence.

I'd expect us to go unchanged if Popa is fit.

Hiro has been fairly peripheral so far this season but not sure Musa or Jovanovic are ready to start in his place.

Don't care how we play in this game, just need to win it!

COYR!!!

I'm quietly confident about this one. Choke off the service to Fornaroli and they actually look a bit thin; the Jest would have won 3- 1 without Fornaroli's 45 minutes of mayhem in the first half. Once they shut down his service, the Jest looked the better side and actually won the half.

If we do beat the filth, then we are clear on top with 3 straight wins, which sets us up nicely for our compulsory mid season slump, when we inevitably lose 3 - 4 matches in a row.

I rather suspect a few neutrals will be watching this one.

I'd imagine the same starting XI, if everyone is fit.
