Exeter City have the opportunity to get back to winning ways on Saturday as Tranmere Rovers visit SJP for our last home league fixture before Christmas.
Following a 2-1 loss to Northampton in midweek, Matt Taylor's men will look to end their run of three league games without victory against the same side they beat 5-0 last season, almost a year to the day of the Saturday's fixture.
The Wirral outfit were victorious in their midweek action, recording a 1-0 win at Oldham Athletic thanks to a 90th minute goal by Charlie Jolley.
Matt Taylor's Thoughts
Following consecutive defeats in league and cup, the Grecians will see the match as an opportunity to get back to winning ways.
"I'm not looking for a reaction from Tuesday, because I don't think we played poorly," Matt said.
"I want to freshen the team up in terms of energy and legs and brightness. The three-game week has taken a lot out of the team, so I will certainly be utilising the squad this weekend.
"I watched back Tranmere's match from Tuesday and we did our prep yesterday and had our staff meeting. They got a late winner on Tuesday night so they'll be coming to us in a bit of form."
