I may be wrong on this but im not going to go big on any of the premieship teams this weekend. Too many of them had players away on international duty so its a bit hard to know if some of them can be 100% fit and focused, especially after long flights, the various emotions of qualifying or elimination so i think the big games should be treated with caution.
Darlington V Wycombe
Darlingtons defence has been a revelation so far this season. 11 clean sheets in 16 league games is without doubt an impressive record to have on your side. This has been one of the factors which has pushed them to third place and they will be looking to build on that with another 3 points today. Any team with a 100 % record at home has to be respected and they also have the best home record in the league
Darlingtons last 4 home games
Darlington - Shrewsbury 2 - 0
Darlington - Chesterfield 0 - 0
Darlington - Stockport 4 - 0
Darlington - Rochdale 1 - 1
Wycome are also a team who have promotion ideas. However with a team so high in the table its a bit of a surprise to see that their away record is quite poor and they are without an away since late september. They are not without problems too with Striker Jermaine Easter refusing to play for the club, leaving them short of attacking options up front.
Wycombe's last 4 away
0 - 0Wrexham - Wycombe
2 - 2 Chester City - Wycombe
2 - 1Peterborough - Wycombe
2 - 1Barnet - Wycombe
With Wycombe being one of the poorer away sides in the division id have to side with Darlington keeping yet another clean sheet and grinding out another home win and a probable 1 - 0 victory.
The other teams that catch my eye are Nottingham Forest to beat Crewe at home. Forest have a great home record and have only conceded 2 in their last 6 home games. With 1st and 2nd placed Carlisle and Orient facing tricky away ties an win today will put Forest top which should be motivation enough for them. Crewe have only kept one clean sheet on the road so far. I dont see that extending today.
