Town Out to Continue Away Form at Bournemouth
Saturday, 28th Dec 2013 06:00
Town boss Mick McCarthy will be looking for the Blues to continue their excellent recent away form when they visit AFC Bournemouth on Sunday (KO 3pm). McCarthy’s men, who won their Boxing Day fixture 3-0 at Doncaster, are unbeaten on their travels since September’s loss at Wigan.
In just over three months since that defeat, the Blues have drawn at Derby, Sheffield Wednesday, Bolton and Nottingham Forest and have beaten Blackpool and Charlton as well as Doncaster.
McCarthy is hoping for that run to continue against the Cherries, who are 15th in the Championship on 28 points, six behind the Blues in seventh, although he stresses that that’s easier said than done.
