CCFC TODAYS TEAM: DAVIES/ KPAKIO & KELLYMAN START

Sat Dec 13, 2025 1:46 pm

Ronan, Omari and Isaak come into the starting XI!


Callum Robinson isn't rewarded with a start after his midweek heroics and admission that he is less than happy about being on the bench, but Omari Kellyman gets another opportunity to impress in that No.10 role.

It's Calum Chambers who captains the side at centre-back, alongside Will Fish at the heart of defence.

Alex Robertson is Ryan Wintle's partner for this one, the Australian getting a little run of games together and is improving with each passing week.

Cian Ashford seems to have that right-wing berth nailed down under Brian Barry-Murphy, while fellow academy grad Isaak Davies starts on the left.

Pleased with that.

Chambers was great on Tuesday but did think this game may have been more suited to Lawlor.

Makes sense for Kpakio and Kellyman to start as they can't play on Tuesday in the cup.

We have a strong 18 and always have good options from the bench no matter who starts so I'm happy with that line up

I thought he was going to go with Chambers and Lawlor.

Strong line up with a very strong bench.

Prediction 3-0 but il take any win.

Sorry Worcester - is Kpacio banned?

Kpakio suspended for Tuesday because of his yellow at Wrexham.
