After two weeks without a game we look to get back on track when we travel to bottom of the table FC United of Manchester on Saturday

We have a better record away from home this season than at Blackwell Meadows, so far we have only lost once on the road in five away games, at Kidderminster Harriers.

FC United of Manchester have so far won just once in the league a 2-1 victory at Altrincham, but have not won in any of their last seven games in the National North.

Our four meetings so far have seen us win all four games including 3-2 and 2-1 victories at Broadhurst Park.

Player/Manager Tom Greaves stepped down early on this season with Dave Chadwick taking over in the hot seat.

For ourselves captain Reece Styche will not be available for the game as he has been called up for international duty again for Gibraltar.
