Only a win and 3 points will give Emley any chance of finishing second and a possible shot at promotion, anything less and Winterton Rangers claim second spot.

Emley are guaranteed a top 3 finish but will want to put pressure on Winterton who only have 1 game left to play, Emley still have 4 left including this one so a win is vital if Emley want to take the race for second any further.

The 2 clubs were big rivals in the NPL days enjoying many league and cup clashes over the years, but after decades apart the 2 clubs are back at the same level again after Frickley were relegated from the Northern Premier League last season, they had played in that league since relegation from the national league (then known as the conference) in 1987!

The sides have already met this season, twice in fact, both at Frickley's Westfield Lane ground in South Elmsall and both finished in Emley wins, both in the space of 2 weeks, and for those who like symmetry, both were 3-1 wins, one in the FA Vase and one in the league.
Form wise, Emley's 2-0 win at Knaresborough on Saturday was the 13th game unbeaten in all competitions, 10 wins and 3 draws, while Frickley haven't won in 6 games.
