We haven’t actually won too many away games, although Aberdeen in the League Cup was one of them.  Extra time looming I fear. 

A quality strike from RCC but since then I have not been overly impressed but maybe just needs a good run of games but no way can you keep just and said out team

Nothing's ever guaranteed, but we've got the team we all wanted for years - playing attractive football, winning games and willing to go toe to toe with everyone they face, including the uglies. If they're going up there believing they'll win, so am I.

None of the best Motherwell teams I have watched in the past have won anything. 

I'll be delighted if this one is the exception, but I never pin my hopes on cup success. Even more so now when games are played to conclusion rather than sorting things out in a replay.

Really looking forward to tonight's game though. Hope none of my customers need me if we go into extra time - already have my calendar blocked out for that possibility.

We’re winning this tonight. Maswanhise and Said to both play well and score a few between them. And McGinn to finish it with a set piece header.

Its a cup game, getting through is all that matters, so while scoring a few goals and pumping them would be nice, i would settle for a 95th min OG by Aberdeen, a controversial VAR assisted winner, or any other scrappy goal to win the game.

Thats my major concern. We've been hard to beat away from home, but haven't actually picked up many wins.

Looks like Aberdeens proposed move for their new manager has hit the skids.

not major news for us but it can potentially lead to unhappy rumblings from the fans and uncertainty from the players/manager.

lets hope for an air of disappointment from the dandy dons tonight

We have improved in the 2nd half of the season though.

And we've only lost 2 away games in the league - both to the OF.

Strange that connolly is starting,   good seeing thor start and good options to come off the bench.

I know he was in goal for the Ross County game, but this is a different kettle of fish. Sorry, you need to play your strongest 11. Hope this doesn`t come back to bite us.
