OLDHAM boss Iain Dowie has warned his second division high-fliers not to take anything for granted.

The Latics face non-league Burton Albion at Boundary Park in tomorrow's (Saturday) first round tie and he knows his side can't afford any slip-ups.

Dowie said: "There is nothing they would like better than put one over on us and we mustn't make the mistake of underestimating them.

"We want to win as many game as we can and we have been absolutely meticulous in our preparations for this one.

"We have had them watched and know what they are about. They have nothing to lose and will be really fired up."

Top scorer Clyde Wijnhard has made a full recovery from knee surgery but it looks like the tie has come a week too early for the eight-goal Dutchman.

Carlo playing on

Canadian ace Carlo Corazzin, who has cancelled an operation on his knee, will again play alongside in-form Wayne Andrews who has scored five times in seven starts.

The versatile John Eyre has been under treatment all week for a foot injury but is expected to keep his place.

Midfielder Lee Duxbury, who has missed three games with a calf strain, is set to be called into the squad.

Darren Sheridan (ribs) and Dean Holden (thigh) will also be available but skipper Matty Appleby (thigh), will again be missing.

Former Latics striker Craig Dudley, who joined the Conference outfit earlier in the season, has been named in their squad.

KEY OPPONENT: Christian Moore, Burton's top scorer this season, will be fired up for his first game back after injury.

PREDICTION: Oldham 3 Burton 0
