Town take on AFC Liverpool, who despite a rocky start to the season, seem to be getting their act together.

The Non League Reds now groundshare with Northern Premier League Division West side Bootle, and tomorrow's game will be played there.

Your away support this year has been sensational, any Ridge army members travelling tonight would no go unappreciated.

However, a pitch inspection will be taking place early doors following the torrid weather.

The Opposition

As previously mentioned, AFC Liverpool had a tough start to the season, but are now coming into form.

Despite being very capable of troubling the big boys last season, AFC sit 19th, but this does come after two wins in a row.

This is obviously helped by the fact that they have one of the more dangerous players in the division.

On his day, there is no reason why Caleb Jones isn't up there with the best in the league.

10 goals and 8 MOTM's from the wing help back up that claim.

8 MOTM's that is the most in the entire division, not to forget.

He also won the NWCFL Premier Division player of the year award in the summer.

On top of that, striker Elliot Taylor is also one to look out for, notching 18 goals for the season, just one behind our Liam.

Both dangermen have caused Town problems in the past.

With the away form seemingly the final piece of the jigsaw, it's going to be very tough keeping either of them quiet.
