Back to Deepdale for a Tuesday for another of those league cup epics you dream about at this stage in the season, lower league opposition in Oldham who we played in a friendly before the start of the season and won easily, however there amy be a bit of spice in this game. During the season Callum Woods received a season ending tackle following a reckless tackle by an Oldham player.
Latics won at Bury yesterday their first win of the season, they have struggled in recent seasons but with the appointment of ex North End player Steve Robinson they seem to have made a good appointment. Robinson is assistant manager of Northern Ireland and was previously assistant at Motherwell. Squad wise, no real star players although keeper Conor Ripley is on loan from Middlesbrough and ex Manchester City winger Lee Croft is still making the odd appearence for the Latics.
Given the lengthy trip to Ipswich next Saturday, expect us to make changes, Lindegaard seemed to pick up an injury yesterday and woul not be surprised if Maxwell plays on Tuesday, Hugill hopefully should get a start after looking good when coming on as substitute yesterday. This is a game we should win but the last time the two met in a cup tie at Deepdale Latics won 2-0 and Latics have not conceded in the last three games.
Oldham last three games DDW
Next three games Bradford City A Carlisle United H, Shrewsbury Town H
North End last three games LLW
Next three games Ipswich A Barnsley H Cardiff H
