Micky Mellon: Shrewsbury in for a rough ride
Manager Micky Mellon knows his Shrewsbury side are in for a tough test as they look to return to winning ways at Plymouth.
Town travel to Home Park to take on an Argyle side who have lost only once at home in the league this season.
That defeat came against Wycombe but John Sheridan's side have otherwise been impressive on their own patch as they aim to win promotion from League Two.
And Mellon is expecting a tough game on the south coast tomorrow, as Shrewsbury look to end a run of four successive away defeats.
He said: "We'll go down there with respect for Plymouth, we know what a tough game it's going to be.
"They're a good side and it's always a tough place to go, but we'll be prepared properly and we are looking forward to a good contest.
"Whatever threat Plymouth fling at us, I expect the players to be able to find a way of overcoming that.
"And we will have a look to try and see what we can exploit with what we've got. If we do things right and are better in the key moments, we will do very well."
Mellon was keen to accept responsibility for the four successive away defeats but feels the team has worked hard in training to rectify previous mistakes.
He said: "I am happy to take responsibility for anything that doesn't go quite right.
"We all have very high standards and if we want to win promotion we have got to keep our standards very high.
"We could have taken something from all the games we have lost but we continue to work hard because we know we are not the finished article.
"We know we get into good areas, but in training this week we have been working on that final ball as well as movement in the box.
"We have been trying to put that finishing touch to the great build-up play we have."
Town will travel to Home Park with a fully fit squad although striker Andy Mangan is suspended following his red card against Southend.
