Witton return to league action on Saturday afternoon when they welcome Hanley Town in a Northern Premier League West Division fixture.

Buoyed by the win at Nantwich Town in the Cheshire Senior Cup in midweek, Albion will go into the game looking to put much-needed league points on the board.

The two sides are separated by two points but Hanley have played a game less so far so, three points are important for Jon Macken’s team.

The two games between the two last season saw Witton pick up four points and the corresponding fixture at the U Lock It Stadium was memorable for striker Connor Hughes, who netted four times as Albion came out comfortable winners 5-1 with Elliot Rokka scoring the other goal.

The return meeting in Staffordshire towards the end of the season saw the points shared in a goalless draw.

Four defeats in their last five games have been a problem for Witton, but they will be looking to improve on that against a Hanley team who have performed well on the road in recent weeks.

The game is the first of two home fixtures in three days for Witton as FA Trophy form team City of Liverpool FC are on the horizon but, that is for the future.

Hanley will be a tough test and Witton will need to improve on recent performances if they are to achieve the right result.

Please note the earlier kick off time at the U Lock It Stadium is 1pm.
