Saturday sees us pitched against Brighton at the Amex. Recent form certainly favours a home win, with Brighton being unbeaten in their last 6 games, whereas we have suffered two narrow defeats over the same number of games.
A win would see us leapfrog Brighton and keep us in touch with Newcastle, whereas a defeat would see us perilously close to slipping out of the top 6.
NCFC team selection is going to be interesting, with Howson missing for a couple of months and does AN start with Brady and Ja Murphy, both of whom have been underperforming for the last couple of games, or does he decide to freshen things up and start with Pritchard (in an online poll in the EDP, a ‘mere’ 94% out of over 1,000 who voted think AP should start!!!) and maybe Canos – we’ll know the answer at 2pm on Saturday??
Pinto is still rated as doubtful, tough Dorrans is in the squad and AN apparently feels that Ja Murphy is still preferred in the starting 11.
