Match of the Day

Barnton v Wythenshawe Town (ko 3pm)

Steve Warburton’s late winner at Stockport Town for Barnton on Monday changed the Villagers’ mood after a run of five successive defeats in all competitions.

They hope it signals a change in fortune.

Wythenshawe also returned to winning ways the same afternoon when they put behind them back-to-back losses with a 3-1 victory over Cammell Laird.

Two emboldened sides should serve up an attacking game.

It’s an important afternoon for…

Northwich Victoria (at home to Padiham, ko 3pm)

There will be some frustration for Steve Wilkes that the momentum from an FA Cup replay win against higher-ranked opponents has been lost.

Defeats in successive games against Burscough, one of them leading to an exit from that competition, was followed by a 1-1 draw against 1874 Northwich on Monday.

Vics take on their manager’s former club buoyed by Billy Whittle’s second-half equaliser and boosted by the return of attacker Billy Webb from an injury.

And what about…

Clocktower v Barnton Wanderers (ko 3pm)

Barnton Wanderers, the reigning Crewe and District League champions, begin the defence of their title with a short trip to Clocktower.

Their neighbours enjoyed an encouraging debut campaign last time out, finishing in sixth position.

However the visitors to Moss Farm this weekend will want to lay down a marker.

Why not go and give your local side a cheer?
