Sutton United could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a FA Cup game only three sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Bristol Rovers. 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.
One slightly interesting match fact is that this game is played on grass and that the visiting Sutton United have a different surface at their stadium (artifical turf). The impact of this is hard to measure exactly, but the visitors stats on grass is 19-11-14 (win-draw-loss) from 44 matches.
