    Fleetwood Town host Burton Albion at Highbury this weekend.

    The Cods drew with Sheffield Wednesday last weekend in the FA Cup 4th round to set up a return fixture at Highbury.

    Fleetwood beat Burton in the reverse fixture winning 1-0.

    Burton currently sit 22nd whilst the Cods sit 17th, but only four points separate the sides.

    Burton beat Oxford United 2-0 this weekend which could give them confidence going into this fixture.

    On the last day of the January transfer window  Scott Brown's side signed striker duo Jack Marriott from Peterborough United and Jayden Stockley from Charlton Athletic.

    Will Fleetwood rest their players for the big FA Cup replay and the chance to play in the fifth round?or will they play a strong team against Burton to hopefully secure safety from the drop zone?
