Mickleover Sports (Red) vs Witton Albion Academy.

Witton’s Academy team are scheduled to play only their second NPL Football Academy Joma Division fixture of the campaign on Wednesday afternoon when they travel to Mickleover Sports (Red). Their campaign got off to a terrible start in September when they were thrashed 7-1 at Carlton Town but various circumstances have prevented Witton from playing a competitive game since. They enjoyed an excellent season last time and also reached the Semi Finals of the NPL Football Academy Cup. Kick off at The Don Amott Arena is 1pm.
