First Division North Preview: 26th August
Mon 26th August 2019 | Match Previews | By David Brindle
Lower Breck will look to remain at the summit of the First Division North after their 5-1 win against Chadderton when they welcome St Helens Town on Monday. Town won their last game 4-2 at home to AFC Blackpool.
Breck's nearest rivals at the top of the table are Ashton Town, who drew 3-3 with Holker Old Boys in their recent outing, and they will travel to Pilkington after they suffered defeat to Bacup Borough at the weekend.
That was Bacup's first win of their league campaign, and they will look to emulate that success when they face Chadderton who lost to Lower Breck on Saturday.
Garstang are left bottom of the division after Saturday, and after hiring a new manager in Richard Cookney, they travel to Holker who saw out a 3-3 thriller with Ashton Town last time.
Prestwich Heys' recent form has seen them move into promotion contention level on points with their opponents on Monday AFC Liverpool. Both sides won last time - Heys defeating Atherton LR 2-0 while AFC Liverpool beat Daisy Hill 7-1.
Daisy Hill will look to rebound when they host AFC Darwen - three wins in their last five and a game in hand on the teams above them.
Shelley are one of five teams on 10 points around the top of table after a 0-0 draw with Nelson on Saturday. They'll hope to add three points when Steeton, who lost to AFC Darwen last time, arrive at the Stafflex Arena.
Emley AFC are also in with that group at the upper echelons on 10 points after a 2-0 win away at Garstang, and Golcar United are their visitors after they drew 1-1 with Cleator Moor Celtic.
It's a trip to Nelson for Cleator Moor on Bank Holiday Monday, with Nelson also drawing at the weekend.
Atherton LR lost to Prestwich Heys on Saturday and their next fixture will come at home to AFC Blackpool who lost 4-2 at the hands of St Helens Town last time.
