❔Score, scorers and attendance predictions v Mansfield [H] 14.10.2023 [EFL L2]

[60YearsAPie]

25034

I'm looking forward to this one, in front of a full house! Our last 6 home games in the EFL against the Stags, all in front of five-figure crowds have produced three 0-0 draws. Can't see that happening on Saturday.

Notts 2 Mansfield 2

Langstaff, McGoldrick

Eyes down for a full house!

Don't forget it's a 12.30 kick-off, so all predictions by 11.30, please.

[slack_pie]

Here we go then. If we play at our best (like we did in the first half against Swindon), I think we'll win. But I imagine Stags fans will think the same about their team. Impossible to predict other than there will be goals, but I get this feeling we'll come undone. Perhaps an early red like against Sutton or something like that to deflate the big crowd.

Mansfield are pretty solid at the back and will put a fair few crosses into our box, so think we’ll come a cropper.

[upthemaggies]

Neither club has scored more than 2 in a Meadow Lane clash since 1990. Mansfield are only conceding 0.75 goals per game but are down in 11th on the scoring charts, so that all points to a sensible scoreline.

This is the first time a Notts v Mansfield match (home or away) will be televised.

I’m really excited about this game. A full house. 2 good teams locking horns. As others have alluded to, I think think this game will hinge on which Notts side turns up.
If we dominate good possession as we can, I don’t think Mansfield will cope. There isn’t a single side Stags have played this season that play the way we do. Players like Flint, who are very strong, will be asked to defend subtle movement, slide rule passes. Rather than using his height and physicality.
I’m going with my heart on this one. Notts 3 v stags 1

I really hope we have a good ref.

I’m not so confident. Apparantly Mansfield press is really effective….may be our own defence that comes unstuck. They have faced almost of the top teams now too.

Wouldn’t say I was confident mate. I know if we are at our best, Mansfield won’t cope… it would also mean that any press they apply will be surpassed.
The opposite could happen.

Can't see us geiing anything more than a draw against the draw specialists unfortunately. Also off the top, can see Stockport running away with it.

I'm looking forward to and dreading this game in equal measures, but at least if we lose we will still be a point above them. Local derbies tend to be blood and thunder classics or thud and blunder letdowns. Could be either, but I'm going for:

Notts 0-0 Mansfield

This is a brilliant interview - the last reporter in particular asks some really insightful questions about LW’s early years. A bit different to your average pre-match presser.

Yeah, we pretty much always play badly against them. But if any team can buck that trend, it's LW's.

Easily done bless him. I know you’re not picking fault but both him and Ollie are still very young and I love the stuff they are doing for the site. In fact there’s still plenty of opportunities for others to have a go at writing for us if they feel they are up for it.

Certainly not picking fault, and the first mention of Mackail-Smith ignited some good memories. When we went down in the 2018/19 season our home win against them denied them automatic promotion. If they had beat us they would have gone up in second place, instead they finished fourth and bottled the playoffs. Didn't save us, but at least it meant we were only one division below them instead of two.

I really hope we have a good ref.

We've played and beaten League 1 Peterborough and Championship Sheff Wed, both of whom played dominant, possession based football. We also play that style. If we play our best, we won't be beaten. 15 teams so far have failed to do it, so if you manage to be the first, fair play, it'll mean you're the real deal.

I'm going for 1-1

[SmiffyPie]

It's a new Notts side without any old Notts baggage and I don't think we will be fazed out by the fact it is Mansfield, they are just another team up there.
Very difficult to call but I will go for 2-1 to us.
Full house.
