HARROWBY UNITED V HUCKNALL TOWN

UCL DIV 1 SAT 27TH NOVEMBER 21 3 PM KO

MATCH PREVIEW

Hucknall face another difficult looking away trip this time to Harrowby United who are based in Grantham.

The Yellows will be looking to get back to winning ways after picking up just 1 point in the last 3 league games after 8 straight wins and have dropped out of the play off fixture to 7th spot.

Harrowby sit a point and a place below town having played a game more so will leapfrog Hucknall should they be victorious.

Harrowby's record is played 22 winning 12 drawing 3 and losing 7 with a goal difference of plus 20. 

Harrowby began the season quite well with 3 wins and a draw before a first defeat against league leaders Aylestone.and from there it's been a pretty much mixed bag of results with wins against Bourne Town(h), Graham Street (a),  Blackstones (h&a), Borrowash (h), A notable home win over Kimberley, Barrow(h), West Bridgford (a)and Gedling(a)

Defeats against Kirby Muxloe (h), Saffron Dynamo (a), Radford (h), Hinckley (h), St Andrews (a) and Belper United (h)

Draws Dunkirk (a), last game against Clifton (a) and on opening day of the season at home to Ingles.

Danny Durkin must be watched as he has 19 goals to his name so far this season but other players have also been scoring their fair share.

Hucknall come to Dickens Road having had a disappointing defeat at Belper, a penalty shoot out defeat to a young Notts County Team in the Notts Senior Cup and the crazy home game against Saffron Dynamo when the Yellows found themselves 5 1 down at half time.

Hot on the heels of David Leak returning to the club another very familiar face has returned for the umpteenth time. I think the fans will have mixed feelings about the return of Matt 'Cabbage' Brian but I think we need his playing style up front. With Grant Ryan suspended and Joe Ashurst unavailable I think he will start.

Sadly I will miss the game through working instead but should be a decent game as both teams will be aiming to close the gap on the play off positions.

Keep safe all and safe travels
