After a break from the league in midweek, we return for our second consecutive league home fixture, as we welcome Darlaston Town to Gigg Lane.
A goal apiece on either side of half-time meant we shared the spoils with Avro last time out in a tightly contested encounter, ending both clubs’ recent winning runs as the chase for top spot continues.
Darlaston went on to beat Avro 1-0 in midweek, setting up quite an interesting fixture this weekend.
In Opposition – Darlaston Town
Darlaston have won three from their last four games, but remain in the bottom four solely on goal difference to Sporting Khalsa being one of four teams at the rear end of the table on 23 points.
They moved laterally over the summer from the NPL Midlands Division, where they finished 7th last season.
