The Robins will aim to rectify a challenging week having endured two consecutive losses against Lancaster City and Gainsborough Trinity.
A Word From The Gaffer
Speaking after the 3-0 defeat to Gainsborough Trinity, Steve Cunningham said: “We’ve now got a 13-game season to show some pride for the football club and for the fans.”
Opposition Watch
The Yellows are one position and three points ahead of Ashton in ninth place having played one extra fixture (28).
They have also suffered two defeats on the bounce, coming at the hands of Bamber Bridge and Cleethorpes Town.
However, prior to their slight dip, they went seven games unbeaten, picking up 13 points.
Last Time We Met
Both sides last faced off against each other earlier in the season at Cantilever Park. The Yellows edged out a 2-1 win thanks to goals from Reece Daly and Neill Watson, while Enoch Lusiama bagged for the Robins against his former side.
