We should expect another win by the odd goal in seven tomorrow as the expected line up is.

Given Barton Hughes Goma Domi Solano Dyer Speed Glass Shearer Cordone

Plenty of attacking midfielders for us and a defence which will be no more sound than the previous two matches. However, I'd expect us to score a few and I'm confident about the midfield and attack, as I would expect Cordone to drop deep a few times, effectively meaning a five man midfield when needed, sounds bloody ideal to me.

Here's to a resounding victory over those whinging Spurs tossers.

And possibilities on the bench to choose from: Harper (defo), Charvet (defo), one of the Caldwell brother (possibly Stephen as he's the oldest, but nufc.com favour Gary as the better player), Gavilan, Kerr (defo) and Coppinger (defo).

Really leaves a choice between one of the Caldwell brothers and Gavilan. This time I'd go for Stephen Caldwell.

Talking of attacking midfielders, we are the only side to have three players in OPTAs attacking midfielder top ten - namely Solano, Speed and Dyer. It's definitely our strength. Perhaps even indicates an imbalance.

Especially when on Sat we will be looking for Speed to get stuck in and win the ball from Sherwood and Freund!

It can't help the defence.
