NCEL Weekend Preview

9th March, 2007

The top two Premier Division sides are at home in league action this weekend as the title race hots up.

Leaders Sheffield entertain Glasshoughton Welfare knowing any slip-ups could let Retford United, who are ten points behind but have three games in hand, through the back door.

Retford, though, have to overcome tough opposition as they host Mickleover Sports who are looking to maintain their top five position.

Third-placed Garforth Town hope to build on their 7-1 midweek victory at Eccleshill United as they go to bottom side Brodsworth Welfare.

It is sixth against fourth as Carlton Town welcome Maltby Main to the Bill Stokeld Stadium whilst Armthorpe Welfare travel to Selby Town with both sides hoping for a victory that could take them into the top seven.

There is an intriguing local derby as Glapwell travel to Sutton Town with Glapwell manager Les McJannet making his first visit to the Fieldings since he left the manager?s role there in the summer.

Long Eaton United host Arnold Town whilst Liversedge go to Shirebrook Town and Hallam are at Thackley in the rest of the Premier Division action.

Winterton Rangers could close the gap between themselves and leaders Parkgate to one point if things go their way in Division One.

They are at home to Staveley Miners Welfare whilst the top side are on their travels as they go to Hall Road Rangers.

The sides in third and fourth, Nostell Miners Welfare and Lincoln Moorlands, do not have a game which gives South Normanton Athletic a chance to move into the top four.

They are at home to local rivals Teversal who know that a win could get them out of the bottom three.

Basement outfit Rossington Main go to Gedling Town whilst Borrowash Victoria are at home to Pontefract Collieries and AFC Emley travel to Worsbrough Bridge.
