Maybe Clough wasn’t happy with Pep’s choice of wine or the amount poured after the first leg, so he’s looking for a little payback.

Another long night for Burton this, just hope they don't resort to kicking our players

Why would they? As long as we don’t take the piss by showboating there’s no point in trying to kick us off the pitch

A perverted part of me almost want to see Burton win this one. Almost.

I hope not, the tie is over and it's an opportunity for Burton to try and play ball with our '2nd team', which will probably have KDB, Mahrez, Foden, Delph, Stones, Jesus in the starting 11. A scary thought at 0-9 down!

I suspect the Burton fans are absolutely thrilled about getting to see that lot.

Personally, I expect it'll be akin to a friendly. No point their players getting hurt either.

Hope we smash Burton to smithereens.
Be totally professional and think of breaking a goal scoring record or two.
Let everyone know we are on a roll.

They are playing on their home turf they will have a point to prove, they will go for it.

Assuming they don't score 10, The main objective tonight is to get through the match with no injuries to key players. Despite the Brewers droop the other week, they should be applauded for achieving a major semi for 180 minutes.
