Last time out they came from behind in the last ten minutes to defeat Walsall 2-1.
Tranmere
Rovers new manager John Barnes has had a mixed start this season, they started the season with a 1-0 defeat at Yeovil and followed this up with two big wins at home in the Carling Cup and League One. On Tuesday evening, they went down 1-0 at home against MK Dons.

We've got the momentum going and it's mainly been done away from home. Lets ensure we can keep it going on Saturday against Tranmere.

This stats are a bit cock eyed. We lost 2-0 in 2007-2008 in one of Macca's early games (Moore scored of course). We broke the hoodoo last season and Barnes has an abysmal record in management so lets hope it continues.
