    An irony here. Last week we played the botom of the league at home and lost. This week we play the team that took their place away. I said this last time, what could possibly go wrong.....................again.

    We've played Burton 16 times....won four (all at home)...Drawn six...lost...six.

    Never beaten them away ?

    It will be interesting to see who Cleverley will pick to be the Keeper today......Hazard played quite well during his first game back since his injury.

    A couple of dodgy moments maybe.....the first goal could be put down to Hazard not dealing with it as expected.

    Ashby-Hammond started his Argyle life poorly on pre-season in Austria.....seemingly knocking the ball into the net when it was easier to save it.....but he has match by match improved his performance.....and did a great job of saving that penalty recently.....so a decision for Cleverley to make there.

    Yes: look at how Peterborough scored the only goal.



    You cannot simply push the ball back towards the penalty spot like that.

    Hazard...Ross...Wiredu...Tolaj...Mumba...Mitchell...Oseni...Boateng...McCabe...Ibrahim...Sorinola.

    Subs
    Ashby-Hammond...Paterson...Benarous...Galloway...Roberts...Pepple...Finn.

    So Hazard gets preference and captaincy as well......becoming our seventh captain this season....so it says.

    Not always that simple....stopping it going in is the first priority.....directing it to safety is not always a choice.
