  • 10' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds.

  • 15' Daniel James has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 1 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
  • 20' Neither side is committing men forward. This has all the hallmarks of a tense, tactical contest.
