Pressure massively on them.
At home to the biggest home crowd of the year, who will increasingly become more nervy and restless the longer the game goes on without them scoring.
If we play like we did last night I honestly can't see them scoring. Defensively (at least to me) we looked to be able to halt them rather well.
I might be being too confident but I honestly don't see any reason we should fear them if we play with the same amount of sharpness and intensity as last night. They can't live with us down the flanks to save their lives.
I don't buy into their 'We play better at home so we're favourites' patter. It's the play offs, effectively a pressurised cup game with a full house and nervy crowd. Too many factors to quash that argument for me.
