I must admit that I am not looking forward to this one.

Just hope that we come out of it with the 3 points.

To be played on Sunday 19th April 2026.

At the world famous City Ground in Nottingham.

Kick off is at 14:00.

COYR!

Not the greatest matchup for us as we're so bad at breaking teams down. I'll take a scruffy 1-0 win right now.

Have we ever had a decent game against them at home since we’ve been in the premier league?

Always seems like a missed opportunity

Not sure about the result but Im pretty sure it will be a terrible game of football.

We last beat them at home in the league in 2012. Last played 2 years ago in a 1-1 draw when they were robbed of a win by VAR.

I'd go 3 at the back and let Aina and Neco get up and down as they are better than all our wingers, and tbh that's how I'd play for most our remaining games!

Aina cant get up and down.
And sorry, there is no way we should be playing with 3 centre backs at home to Burnley !

Have you seen the state of our wingers?

Look how well Leeds played since they switched, it can be attacking.

I'm with you, I would do the same, if Aina can't play RWB then stick N'Doye/Bakwa there and play Aina at RCB. We have shown it can work to good effect in an attacking sense in the Europa League. Aina's legs may not be quite as good as last year but he's still a way better crosser than the other wingers.

I think this really suits MGW too.

How's it come to this chaps when we appear to be shitting ourselves that we may lose to a Burnley team at the WFCG who are all but relegated, much have we dropped since the highs of last season!

How did we get here indeed. From bottom of the championship to a Europa League semi-final in 5 years.
