Burton Albion receive Cheltenham Town for another intriguing League One fixture here at Pirelli Stadium.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Carabao Cup. That game was also an away game, at Gillingham. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
