A lot more nervous about this game than I would have been had it been played a month ago. They have nothing to lose and Steptoe wants his 200th goal.
Think they will try to rough us up and generally cause havoc, going to be very scrappy I reckon.

Absolutely dreading this one, anything less than a win is not good enough unfortunately.

Any news on CHO? 

If we stay solid we will score.

Pressure is obviously there and it could end up pretty tense.

On the other hand, it's a great opportunity to score some goals and give us some late momentum for the final two games.

Goes without saying I'd take a 1-0 but imagine the positive vibes a 4-0 would give the team going into the last two games. Wouldn't be the first team to build momentum after battering Leicester!

Pretty sure Nuno said CHO out for this one. But positive for after that.

Leicester's biggest weakness has been their defence (albeit their attack has also been poor). If we can grab an early lead then hopefully their heads drop and we can punish them.

It would be great for morale if we could have a nice relaxing 3-0 - all done and dusted by half time type game. A 10 minute Elanga blitz like we saw against Ipswich would do the trick

But that is and never has been the forest way in these situations.

I hope we just keep attacking and scoring to boost confidence like brighton, and shut up shop after 2 like at spurs

I cant see we're just going to roll them over. There'll be too many nerves. It'll be an edgy game.

Be interesting to see how Nuno sets up here.

Will he pair Dominguez with Sangare and play Anderson in the left hand pocket with Elanga on the right.

Or

Elliott and Sangare with Sosa/Jota playing out wide with Elanga on the other wing.

Midfield control v extra attacker.

I reckon Nuno goes for option 1 to start the game with and try to control it

An early goal will settle the nerves.

Let's get at them from the first whistle.

Their defence has been a shambles this season.
