Witton complete a run of four successive away games when they travel to Kidsgrove Athletic in a Northern Premier League West Division fixture.
They need to bounce back after a disappointing defeat at Wythenshawe Town on Saturday, but face a difficult challenge in Staffordshire.
Kidsgrove go into the game in eleventh place in the table following a 4-2 win against Trafford at the weekend.
A five point gap exists between the two teams going into another important fixture so Witton will be looking to make sure that doesn’t become wider.
Kidsgrove’s last four home games have seen two wins, one draw and a defeat, Stafford Rangers being the only visiting team to win at the Fitzjohn Stadium so far this season.
During that time, Witton’s last four away league games have seen one win, one draw and two defeats.
Some of the injuries within the Witton squad are clearing up, allowing the management team more options to choose from and the recent signing of defender Ben Dufton-Kelly from Bootle has added to the competition for places.
Kidsgrove are now under the guidance of joint managers Matt Rhead and former Albion striker Tom Pope, so they will be looking to get the right result.
Last season’s meetings saw Kidsgrove win comfortably at home 4-0, whilst Witton edged the return at the U Lock It Stadium by the odd goal in three courtesy of goals from James Lawrie and James Hooper.
Witton will be hoping to widen the gap between themselves and the bottom teams in the table but they will need to perform in order to get anything from the game.
Kick off at the Fitzjohn Stadium is 7.45pm
