Match Preview: Accrington Stanley (A)

All the key details ahead of Saturday's trip to Accrington

March 3rd 2023FGR Media

We make our first trip to the Wham Stadium since 2018 when we travel to Accrington Stanley on Saturday.

Here are all of the key details ahead of a big clash at the bottom of League One.

Paragraph Break

WHAT WE SAID:

"They've only lost one game out of their last six or seven, so they're on good form," said Duncan Ferguson when asked about Accrington.

"They play direct, they've got a good way about them and they have a coach who has lots of experience in the division.

"It's a tough match, it's an away game, but we're going there to win and to compete. We need to get wins so the players can get a bit of confidence."

Paragraph Break

WHAT THEY SAID:

"It's a wonderful opportunity [at Forest Green] for Duncan," said Accrington boss John Coleman.

"If he gets it right, the pathway is there for him. It'll be a different challenge for him, but one by all accounts that he's really embracing."

"He's unfortunate that he's not had a win yet, but they've let some late goals in."

TEAM NEWS:

Jordan Moore-Taylor is getting closer to a return to action, but the clash at the Wham Stadium comes too soon for the defender.
