BURTON Albion take on Wycombe Wanderers in what is the last game of the 2021/22 season at the Pirelli Stadium tomorrow afternoon (12.30pm) kick-off.
FORM GUIDE
The Brewers come into the game off the back of a 2-0 defeat away at Doncaster Rovers, the first time the Brewers let in a goal in the last five outings.
Wycombe are currently on an 11-game unbeaten streak coming into the final game of the season. The Chairboys last result came in a narrow 1-0 victory over fellow play-off challenging Sheffield Wednesday.
HEAD 2 HEAD
Since the Brewers were promoted to the EFL, the sides have faced off a total of 13 times with Albion winning seven of these and Wycombe taking six.
This will be the third time the teams have come up against each other this season, with the most recent coming in a 2-1 loss for the Brewers at Adams Park. Albion got the better of Wycombe in the Papa John’s Trophy, however. An Aaron Amadi-Holloway hat-trick was the highlight in a 5-0 victory over the Chairboys.
BREWERS TEAM NEWS
