Match Preview

Witton take a break from league action on Tuesday night when they travel to Nantwich Town in the second round of the Cheshire County Senior Cup.

The game also means a quick turnaround for the two teams who locked horns a week ago at the U Lock It Stadium in a league meeting.

Witton go into the game off the back of another defeat at the weekend, but the Dabbers had a blank day due to the weather preventing their game from going ahead.

Tonight’s game is Witton’s first in this season’s competition as they received a bye from the first round but the Dabbers overwhelmed Runcorn Town at the Swansway Stadium 10-1 to set up tonight’s clash.

The competition can provide a welcome distraction for Witton as they continue to battle their way through a difficult period where results are not falling too kindly for them.

It also gives the management team the opportunity to shuffle their players, and give important minutes to players who might not have featured regularly in recent weeks.

Nevertheless they will still want to put in a performance and hopefully get the right result.

Kick off at The Swansway Stadium is 7.45pm.
