Witton team news & latest score updates will appear here as and when they become available.
Team news: Witton make one change to the starting lineup beaten by King’s Lynn Town on Tuesday. Tom Schofield who went off early in that game, drops to the bench and is replaced by Zac Corbett. Andy Fowler & Dean Porter are still missing through injury.
Andy Robertson, Liam Goulding, Jon Dawson, John Shaw, Sam Barnes, Joe Shaw, Zac Corbett, Luke Clark, Jamie Rainford, Alex Titchiner, Danny Andrews.
Subs: Tom Schofield, Jake Parker, Lucas Porquet-Molina, Ryan Swift.
Former Witton defender Rob Bodie is serving a three game ban but rather surprisingly, striker Scott Bakkor is not included in the visitors squad.
Have just read on Andrew Simpson’s Twitter feed that it was part of the agreement between the two clubs when Bakkor signed for Skem, that he wouldn’t play against us.
