Rare Saturday trip to Crosby

Workington’s last nine trips to Crosby have been for mid-week matches but it is a Saturday appointment this season, the first for thirty four years!

Marine are in a good seam of form at the moment, losing just once in eight outings, and heading for mid-table safety whilst Reds remain second from bottom – a position they have occupied since October.

Lee Andrews will travel with the bulk of the squad that lost successive home games to Basford United and Witton Albion, although will be without Sam Smith (ill), Scott Allison (injured) and Kieran Maguire (work).

Back in September, Marine had the better of a 1-1 draw at Borough Park. Sam Joel had given Reds the lead but Danny Mitchley headed a deserved equaliser ten minutes later.

That was the twenty-ninth league meeting between the clubs and Marine hold the balance of power in the series, winning eleven times compared to the nine successes Reds have enjoyed.

Kick-off at The Marine Travel Arena is 3pm.
