“We have to go there with the same determination we’ve showed recently and if we do that I’m sure we won’t get beat.

“One thing with Accrington at home is that they do have a go and if we’re not ready for that we’ll get found out and we don’t want to do that, as we want to extend our run to five games unbeaten, as we have two tough home games after that.
