“Certainly the group helps. It is a very talented group and I’m enjoying it, and I’m very lucky to be playing with some of the lads.
“It shows by the rotation of the squad; no-one sulks, everyone keeps doing what they need to do when needed.”

Robinson’s men are 11th in the League One table and unbeaten in their last five league games, with Town heading to the Valley on the back of three straight away league wins and a 12-match unbeaten run.
Ball said: “Karl Robinson has taken over and he is a very good tactical manager, so I’m sure it will be a tactical battle.”
