SHANE KILLOCK returns to the HYDE UNITED squad for tomorrow (Saturday’s) Evo-stik NPL premier division game at Ilkeston after a month out with a pulled calf muscle.
The news of the central defender’s availability is bound to delight the Ewen Fields faithful who have seen the Tigers lose their last three games — most recently 3-0 at Nantwich — after a five-match winning run that took them into the play-off places.
ASHTON UNITED, buoyed by last weekend’s FA Trophy success against Stratford Town, have everyone fit and available for the game against league-leaders Nantwich at Hurst Cross.
In Vanarama North, STALYBRIDGE CELTIC travel to Brackley looking to bounce back from Tuesday’s weather-influenced loss to Corby.
Manager Liam Watson will be without defender John Shaw and midfielder Danny Wisdom as the Bridge look to gain at least a point for the first time at St James’s Park, a ground where they have failed to score on their last three visits.
Alex Brown is back for CURZON ASHTON who face Chorley at the Tameside Stadium. Another piece of good news is Jordan Wright’s recovery from a slight hamstring problem but Matt Flynn is doubtful with a foot injury picked up in last week’s defeat by North Ferriby.
Connor Hampson is 50/50 with a slight hamstring issue and faces a late fitness test. Cameron Mason starts a two-match ban.
In the Evo-stik NPL first division north, MOSSLEY have everyone fit and available for their home game with Burscough.
Brandon Kibaka, Domaine Rouse and Eddie Dryden all return for DROYLSDEN who are away to Scarborough Athletic. Ben Barber is doubtful.
For GLOSSOP NORTH END, who suffered a rare defeat last week, conceding a last-minute goal against Ossett Albion, Kelvin Lugsden and Matt Russell are both suspended for the visit to Warrington. Ben Richardson remains injured.
