TRANMERE Rovers hope to end their five-game winless streak as they travel away to Bromley this Saturday in the Sky Bet League Two.
Travelling to the Hayes Lane Stadium, Rovers will be looking to build on last weekend’s 0-0 draw at home to Cambridge United.
Defender Patrick Brough helped his side earn Saturday’s clean sheet. About the danger of the opponents, he said: ”Our analysis is very in depth, and we have all the stats and everything on the board. Like if you if you’ve ever seen it, it’s very, very in depth.
”We know their threats and we know what they’re good at. Seeing the two up top, it’s not just them, the centre halves that come up, the big lads, and we know they can be a threat.
”I’d like to say we’ve done decent off set pieces defending them so far. So, I hope that can continue, but we definitely know it’s a threat for them.’’
On the winless streak, he said: ”I think when you play you don’t think about it cause you kind of just focus on the game, but you can’t stay away from it, can you? Can’t hide from it. It what it is, it’s fact and we don’t want that to happen.
”We want to win five in a row and continue that, but it hasn’t happened that way. It’s part of football. But you do notice it. You can’t hide away from it.”
Brough missed the majority of last season at Northampton Town due to an injury he picked up against Huddersfield Town. Since joining his new club, he’s started every league game this season.
He said: ”You don’t take it for granted. I’d never really had an injury (like that) before. Nothing too serious. And it was.
”It was a seven and a half months injury and now you’re back on the grass training every day in games you do not take for granted cause you remember the days you were in the gym.
”The weeks and months that you’re working and watching lads go out and play and you just not part of it. So definitely now I’m enjoying it and taking every game and trying session as it comes.”
Sitting 18th, four points behind and having a game in-hand, Tranmere will look to replicate the results of last season’s fixtures, having won both home and away 2-1.
Bromley have scored nine this season from set pieces, with strike force Nicke Kamamba and Michael Cheek in goalscoring form. Unbeaten in their last eight home league games, scoring ten in five this season, it will be a tough test for Andy Crosby’s men.
