Match Preview

Sandbach travel to North East Leicester to play Syston, buoyed by a couple of recent wins, but know there is still work to do to ensure National League status again next season. Promoted back to the League this season, Syston have found it a little tough going, but as shown just a few weeks ago, when they beat League leaders Nuneaton at home, they are still tricky opponents. Sandbach will be keen to make amends for their loss to them earlier in the season and found the East Midlands outfit well organised and committed, in a delayed kick off fixture. Barkby Road is also traditionally a difficult ground to play at, where a heavy pitch and strong breeze often make things difficult and Syston usually having a strong kicking game, Sandbach will need to combat this, before playing their renowned all court game.
