WYCOMBE boss Gareth Ainsworth has warned his side not to take Accrington Stanley lightly ahead of their meeting at Adams Park tonight.

The Chairboys beat fellow promotion-chasers Shrewsbury 1-0 at home on Saturday but the former Blackburn Rovers youngster is now fully focused on the Reds.

“We’ve got to back the Shrewsbury result up against Accrington,” said the Wycombe boss.

“It’s another game which we have to take really seriously because Accrington have turned some big teams over this season - we will be very wary of that.”

After beating relegation on the final day of last season, Wycombe are now three points off the summit of League Two and look well-placed to secure at least a play-off place, but Ainsworth insists he is not coming under the strain of the promotion battle.

“There’s no pressure on the boys or myself - I’m not feeling it,” he added.

“We have this squad that nobody fancied and we’re still there defying everybody.

“Putting three up top and using your full-backs as wingers at times could be seen as risky but the rewards outweighed that risk for me.”
