Wycombe Wanderers manager Matt Bloomfield believes his side’s trip to Derby County will be a ‘tough test’ this Saturday, but he is confident of the Chairboys’ ‘threats’ that could cause an upset at Pride Park.

The Adams Park side are currently without a league victory in eight including an existing run of four defeats on the bounce.  

During that period, Wanderers have plummeted to third bottom of the form table with two points gained from the last 18 available, in which they have scored just once in their previous five league outings.

This is a complete contrast to the Rams’ current form, as Paul Warne’s side have secured six league wins from their last seven games, in which they have kept five clean sheets.

The ex-Premier League side have also never lost at home to Wycombe in two previous encounters.

Speaking ahead of their trip to the Midlands on Saturday, Bloomfield said: “We’re going to be up against a team that have got a lot of attacking threat with lots of pace so it#ll be a tough test.

“They’ve got some fantastic players who have had brilliant careers like Nathinal Mendez-Laing, James Collins, Craig Forsyth, Conor Hourihane and many others.

“We are up against a team with a lot of know-how, so we know we need to be tactically ready for them, but we have got threats of our own that we want to use.

“They’re in really good form, they’re a huge football club and we accept the challenges we’re up against as Paul [Warne] has got a well-drilled team, but we want to show ourselves in a good light.

“We’ve done that against Charlton, Peterborough, Portsmouth and Oxford, all away from home, where we've been close to getting results.

“We’re looking forward to the afternoon but we need to turn the performances into results.
