Another tough test for Rovers as we travel to League One Accrington.
Accy lost some key players in the summer, most notably the prolific Colby Bishop, but still have some decent individuals, including Shaun McConville and Harry Pell. They may rest players for this fixture, although given their fairly limited squad depth I would guess any side they put out will be competitive.
If we had a fully fit squad, I think Micky would make four or five changes for this game. As it is, I think Nolan and Hockenhull may play, but I think the starting eleven will be similar to the one at Mansfield.
It is always important to progress in cup competitions for financial reasons, but regardless of the result we need a decent display tomorrow night to go into Saturday's game in reasonable spirits.
This is another fixture I have a ticket for but am unable to attend due to persistent Covid, which is frustrating. I think about 800 Rovers fans will travel, and I don't think there is a live stream available for the rest of us, legal or illegal.
