Witton make the trip down the M6 on Saturday afternoon when they travel to the Midlands to take on Hednesford Town in an Evo-Stik Premier Division fixture. The Pitmen find themselves in mid-table going into the game but not in the best of form having lost four of their last five matches including a 4-1 defeat at neighbours Stafford Rangers last weekend. Witton’s away form has been impressive in recent weeks, having won three of their last five and they will be looking to continue that form in what will still prove to be a difficult test against a determined Hednesford side. Following the departure of manager Rob Smith, who has now taken over the reins at Halesowen Town, former Pitman Francinco Francis has assumed the mantle at Keys Park albeit on a temporary basis and he will be aiming to overturn the club’s fortunes in the coming weeks, as they look to improve their current form. Last season’s meeting between the two sides saw The Pitmen come out on top by the narrowest of margins at Keys Park but Witton then won the return fixture at Wincham Park more comfortably. Kick off at Keys Park is 3pm.
