Strong lineup that!

 

Evans in again! Hopefully he's being well looked after pre and post match. Anyway up the Foxes!

[Matt_Lcfc]

Worried Evans will get injured. However, we all asked for a strong lineup and we have certainly got that. Come on boys.

[Fox in the North]

No reason why that team can’t win in Moscow!

Spartak Moscow starting 11

Hope we get to hear a rendition of "if you're watching on the telly you're a c**t" from the Moscow 25. 

[Pliskin]

Like that. I think 0-3 up at HT, then change the team around after 50 mins. Daka with a couple and I fancy Bouba to grab one tonight.

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Yes. Let's have it.

[Deeg67]

Well, that's certainly a lineup for trying to actually win a match.

[kingfox]

Due to our results and position in the group, albeit risky, we just can’t afford to go resting players, hence that line up.

 

If we had won our first two games, I doubt the likes of Evans would be playing today.

[Steve_Guppy_Left_Foot]

Almost expecting Evans to limp off after half an hour. I know we're incredibly light at the back but 2 games in 4 days after such a long lay off and so injury prone, it's concerning. 

[Devonfox1884]

No excuses now boys. Hopefully get it wrapped up early so we can rest certain players… doubt it’ll be that simple, though.

That’s the spirit 

[Ric Flair]

Like that team, pretty much what I'd have picked bar perhaps Castagne over Thomas but much prefer Thomas to Bertrand who shouldn't ever play for us except in emergencies and certainly not as a wingback.

I know it's doom and gloom but it's just happened so many times before with him can't help but worry. Fingers crossed I'm wrong and think we should do it today comfortably.

He won’t, he needs to play, they wouldn’t be playing him if they felt his injury was at the point of stopping him. 
 

If we can get 2 or 3 goals up, then we can bring him off. 

[spacemunky]

Go Lestahs!

[Haywood_6]

Strong team. Do the business lads.

[StanSP]

DO NOT GET INJURED, JONNY! 

[HybridFox]

Evans picking up an injury worries me but other than that I'm happy with the lineup. Must win let's get the business done lads 

[MonmoreStef]

Really highlights how poor Vestergaard has been for us when you see us having to play and risk Evans in a three against a poor side like these.  

[oohaahmustafa]

Strong. 

 

0 - 2 Daka (34) Maddison (82)

[Ric Flair]

They wouldn't risk Evans if there was any adverse reaction to the Utd game. No guarantee it won't flare up again though, just as there isn't whether he plays today or waits until Sundays game.

[Dandy king]

Good team that. Easy win, Evans off at 60,  lovely jubbly
