HUCKNALL TOWN V INGLES

UCL DIV 1 SATURDAY 23RD OCTOBER 21 3 PM KO

MATCH PREVIEW

Another Leicestershire side visit Watnall Road this Saturday. Ingles who groundshare with landlords Shepshed Dynamo are the visitors. No strangers to the Yellows though as they are old EMCL sparring partners who always provide stern opposition.

Ingles have had a pretty mixed season so far lying in 16th of the 23 teams in the division with a record of played 15 winning 6 drawing 2 and losing 7 and a goal difference of minus 4.

They started off the season quite well. Unbeaten in their first 4 games with creditable draws against the current league leaders Aylestone and Harrowby and wins against the current bottom two sides.

They then lost to Belper at home and this triggered 7 league defeats in a row. Sandwiched in between was a 4 1 victory over Blackstones in the FA Vase a feat they repeated in the home league to end the losing streak.

This in turn has sparked a run of 4 successive victories which have all been at home so they are back on form. 

They also have have the services of striker Billy Clarke who lies third in the division scoring charts on 15 goals behind Birstall's Paul Pallett on 19 and the remarkable stats of Aylestone's Shay Brennan who now has 37 goals from 16 games. 

Hucknall are on a fine run themselves and are also on a run of 4 successive victories.

Their league record reads as played 16 winning 10 drawing 3 and losing 3 with a GD of plus 21 to remain in third spot.

They also have a striker on form in Craig Westcarr  who has scored in the last 5 successive games.

Should be a decent game which I will unfortunately miss due to work commitments.

Enjoy and keep safe
