[Ska'dForLife-WBA]

After being well beaten up in the north-east by a well-rested Durham side, the fixture schedule deals Worcestershire another away match against another team who've had themselves a week's rest, this time off the back of two consecutive wins. The Pears had the better of the first game against Notts until the pitch flattened out and guaranteed a draw; this time, with Gareth Roderick still out of favour and Charlie Morris rotated out, Alzarri Joseph will make his return to restore some pace to the attack. It seems the weather may well have a say again, but if the pitch has enough in it, a positive result may just be possible.
