The Ridge look to bounce back from a tight defeat in Atherton.

It'll be a first return home in two weeks, since last weekend's draw away in the Isle of Man.

We'll take on the division's draw specialists at Inglewhite Road.

Tomorrow's game will be our annual remembrance dedicated fixture, where a period of silence followed by the last post will honour those who gave the ultimate sacrifice to defend our freedom.

A call to opposition fans that Wilfrid's Club, just a short walk to the ground is offering member prices for away supporters for 2025/26 season.

We ask that anyone driving to the match parks respectfully and with residents in mind.

We have a big car park that accommodates roughly 95 cars on a first come first serve basis.

Thank you for your fantastic support on Pound for the Ground, which will be on again this weekend.

The Opposition

As mentioned, Euxton know how to draw.

A whopping 9 sees them top of the draw table, beating out Prestwich Heys' 6 by a distance.

One of those draws came against Town in the second game of the season, in a feisty 1-1.

Rajwinder Uppal scored Villa's goalscoring in that game, and it wouldn't be the first time he's notched against Longridge.

However he's not their only danger man, with striker Dan Singleton scoring 5 goals so far this season.

Goalkeeper Oliver Lombard is also a threat, not for the Villa goalscoring but the Longridge.

They've also got key experience at the back, with former Manchester United and Preston North End right back Matthew Olosunde in their ranks.

The former United States international made his debut in his side's 0-0 draw with City of Liverpool last week.

It's easy to see why they're so good at holding firm.
