tough draw. the rest of the top 6 got some really easy games. not what we wanted of course as we need to get some rest and rotation. well let's see what our bench is made of.
It also depends on how seriously they are taking the competition. If they are focusing solely on staying up, then they may use their reserves too.
Our schedule is actually pretty kind through the Christmas period with a reasonable amount of rest days between each of the games, so it possible we won't have to go too heavy on rotation. After the Napoli game we have: Utd (H, Sunday 12/16) Wolves (A, Friday 12/21) Newcastle (H, Wednesday 12/26) Arsenal (H, Saturday 12/29) City (A Thursday 1/3) Wolves (A Monday 1/7) Brighton (A Saturday 1/12) City's fixture do start to pile up. They have a League Cup QF, a day less of rest before our game with them on the Thursday and then they have FA Cup game on the Saturday.
