Surprising amount of pessimism on here. We're the favourites in my view.

That's when we are most capable of cocking it up.

[Eastside Moonwalker]

I can’t see a win but I won’t complain if we get one, 2-2 for me

Respect 

[tinman85]

No Baker. Hope not serious. 

[petehinton]

Not confident after seeing the line up

no Paterson or Baker in the squad 

[tinman85]

Actually think two out and out wingers could help us. Paterson too infield. 

[WirralRobin]

No Paterson either!?

Ill all week according to RB.

[WirralRobin]

Actually really like that line up - Just shows our strength in depth we have these days when you can take out 3 of our best players this year (Baker, Paterson and Diedhiou) and can bring  in players with the class of Leko and Hegelar.

Don't play the lottery tonight!

[Super]

Baker is a big miss.

[You Do The Dziekanowski]

Can only think we’re playing a weaker/not regular side so we can go all out against Palace on Tuesday. Plus Woodrow and Leko not able to play mid week gives them a chance to put everything into today not worrying about future fixtures

 

but I’m not the gaffer so who knows

Yes, thats Per. Soon we go to south stand. COYR!!!

[Bar BS3]

3 of our best players out today. Will be a good rest of just how deep our squad strength is. 

Will be really tough today now, but should we get a result, that will bode extremely well with 3 big players missing. 

COYR!

No chance of the Pato assists but the rest will come in!!

You Reds! 

[Nogbad the Bad]

Hegeler, Leko, Pack, O'Dowda and Woodrow all starting.

Smith and Baker injured, Paterson ill,  Eliasson replaced and Diedhiou rested.

[EmersonsRed]

Jesus... Could be difficult...

[cityexile]

Those three plus Smith and Pisano, I would argue half our 'first' outfield team is out. Ho hum, nothing can do about it now, just have to see what happens.

[eardun]

If we win today without Baker, Paterson and Smith, it will raise my expectations for this season as it will show we do have real strength in depth.

I never met him but heard he was quite a nice bloke.

Crap weather, major changes to the team - Bristolian pessimism raised to def con 4.

Not favourites anymore ha.

[Colombo Robin]

Anyone else think that that the weather has influenced Johnson's thinking here? Hegeler comfortable passing the ball out of defence and long arial balls to Diedhiou not gonna work today
