Well, although PV fans continue to fantasise that this isn't a derby, we all know it is really. I'm sure they'll raise their game as they're playing the top of the table.
Of course, we'll be facing one of our former academy players whose father dragged off to Liverpool as part of his preparation for the big time. And now he plays for the Vale!
No doubt Pope will cause us problems as he frequently does.
However, we are made of tougher stuff this year and therefore should be able to stand up to Vale's bullying tactics.
We are capable of easily beating them as long as we play our usual game albeit at a faster and slighter more direct approach.
I'm going to really stick my neck out this time and say 3-1 to the Alex. Powell, Porter and Lowery.
