Torquay United entertain Wycombe Wanderers on Saturday as the Gulls look to end a run of seven games without a win.

Vital Quotes:

Millwall manager Willie Donachie on Gulls new boy Marvin Williams: ‘I told Marvin I did not want him to go. I believe he has a real future at Millwall because I love home-grown players and I see him as a great asset.’

Torquay Team News:

Torquay United duo Marvin Williams and Chris Robertson are set to make their Gulls debut’s but Steve Woods, Craig Taylor and Matt Villis are all out injured.

Player to watch: Marvin Williams

The Millwall player has joined Torquay on loan and is set to make his debut at Plainmoor. He has pace and has scored at a higher levels for his parent club. Williams can play on the wing but is likely to start up-front and should cause Wycombe problems.

Wycombe Team News:

Wycombe may make one change from their win over Macclesfield with Ricardo Batista back in the fold. Stefan Oakes, Will Antwi, Sergio Torres and former Gull Mike Williamson all miss out through injury.

Player to watch: Jermaine Easter

He has been on the bench recently but if he starts he is likely to unsettle the Torquay defence. He doesn’t really need an introduction after catching the eye following his performaces and goals this season. He scored against Charlton. He scored against Chelsea. So basement side Torquay United should be no problem. Should it?

Match Facts & Stats

Match Prediction:

1-0 to the Gulls! I’m probably mad but I can see Marvin Williams scoring on his debut and think we can scrape this one!
