NCEL Midweek Preview

16th October, 2006

There are six matches this midweek with four intriguing Premier Division games along with County Cup and Wilkinson Sword Trophy action.

The most intriguing encounter in the League is the only one taking place on Wednesday.

Leaders Maltby Main host fifth-placed Selby Town at Muglet Lane looking to make it five wins in a row.

But, it will be a tough game as the visitors will be keen to close the four-point gap between the two teams.

Pickering Town are also eyeing pole position and a win at home on Tuesday to seventeenth-placed Armthorpe Welfare would put them there on goal difference should Selby claim the points twenty-four hours later.

Bottom side Thackley go into their home game with Long Eaton United on a six game losing streak.

But the visitors, who are currently in fifteenth position, won't be in a charitable mood as they know a victory would move them further away from the relegation zone.

And, it's the battle of the two best defences at the Bill Stokeld Stadium as Carlton Town, who have conceded just five goals in their six games, take on Hallam who have let in only eight in nine.

A favourite for a goalless draw or will it, as so often happens, go against the form book and be a high-scoring encounter? We will find out on Tuesday night!

Meanwhile, in the Wilkinson Sword Trophy, Borrowash Victoria and Lincoln Moorlands battle it out at the Robinson Construction Bowl for a place in the last four.

And, in the Sheffield & Hallamshire Senior Cup, Parkgate host Armthorpe Miners Welfare in a game that was held over from last week because of the Division One highfliers' FA Vase exploits.
