Preview: Duff on Accrington Stanley

14 October 2021

Following the international break, Cheltenham Town boss Michael Duff is looking forward to getting back into action on Saturday when Accrington Stanley visit the Jonny-Rocks Stadium.

It will have been a fortnight since the Robins last League One game at home to Rotherham United, and the visit of Accrington will be the first of two home matches in four days with Morecambe also set to visit on Tuesday.

Duff respects Saturday's opponents and what they've achieved as a League One side ahead of this weekend's encounter.

"It has been a good time to reset. We've got a busy run of games now, more home than away, its a good opportunity to pick up some points," he said.

"Accrington are a really difficult team to play against. They've already had five wins.

"They almost go man for man all over the pitch so it is a case of individual battles.

"There's a real spirit and togetherness amongst them. If we think we're in for an easy game, which we won't, we'll get beat.

"We have to be at it in every game to get a point, let alone three."
