After a game-less two weeks, the Ridge look to get back in action.

Of course though, it is weather dependent.

This will be Town's first game in December, should it go ahead.

The Opposition

Litherland have not had the season they would've wanted.

Following four strong seasons in the Premier Division, REMY now sit rock bottom, after collecting just 7 points in their first 25 games.

The departures of attackers Elliott Taylor and James Hammill haven't helped.

However they did win their first game since July last week, a 4-2 victory at home to Cheadle Town.

Alessandro Trapasso-Tully bagged a brace, so Town will need to keep their eye on him.

William Paynter has also bagged two goals in three games.

Plus, the Litherland Sports Park has not been a happy hunting ground for Longridge.

It could be a potential banana skin if Town are not on it.

Team News

Injuries still ravage the Town squad.

However with striker Liam Atkinson winning the NWCFL Premier Division November player of the month award, confidence will be rife.

A number of players remain out of tomorrow's game, but we will see what the weather brings.
