However, Buckland is not taking the competition lightly and is confident that his side will continue their recent upturn in form.
He said: “I feel we’ve turned a bit of a corner. It’s the same group of lads with the same approach to a game and sometimes you just need things to go for you to turn a corner.
“We’ve got exciting times coming up now and there are real positive vibes.”
