WHAT THE MANAGERS SAID
Conor Sellars: "We have conceded early goals and ended up chasing games.
"We are probably not looking ourselves when we let goals in, because we want to score straight away when we perhaps do not have to, and that is where we are looking to be better."
Keith Hill: "It is going to be a great game. There will be a lot at stake, and we know the enormity of the match and are looking forward to it.
"It will be a very physical encounter where we will have to be at our most competitive - in and out of possession - and need to have an awareness of our opponents."
LAST TIME OUT
Mark Trueman and Conor Sellars’ side recorded a third-straight victory in Sky Bet League Two - beating Tranmere Rovers 1-0 at Prenton Park on Boxing Day.
