Manager Comments:
Gareth Ainsworth - "Karl Robinson has done a great job there as there was a lot of pressure going in and taking the job last year.
"They have some good players and we will have to be at it on Saturday because we know what we can do, we have to earn the right to play, but hopefully I will see more what I saw Tuesday night as I was really impressed with the game.”
“We are going to Salford to win and hopefully bring some points home with us!"
Karl Robinson - “I’ve always said that when my best side is available we are a match for any side in this division.
“We’ve had a horrendous run of injuries but this is now my side back to full fitness and the last two performances show what they can do.”
