Nuneaton Town continue a crucial few weeks in their season as they travel down the A5 to Lutterworth Town on Saturday afternoon.
They have already played Histon last Saturday, the team currently in 3rd, and play the teams currently in 6th, 4th and 5th in the next 3 league matches, with an FA Vase 3rd Round sandwiched in the middle. Having lost that Histon game 1-0, a first home league defeat of the season, Nuneaton will be looking to repair the damage on Saturday against a team that gave them a huge scare at The Oval earlier in the season.
Nuneaton kept their 2 point lead on Tuesday thanks to Histon dropping points at Godmanchester Rovers to miss the chance to go level on points at the top, and Nuneaton will be looking to extend their lead at the top, ahead of Aylestone Park v March Town United, the other big game at the top of the table, an hour later.
Nuneaton's only other competitive trip to Lutterworth to take on Athletic ended in a 7-1 victory for the away side, and they will be hoping to make another happy trip to the Leicestershire town.
Lutterworth Town earn their 6th place with 9 wins, 3 draws and 5 defeats, and last played on 8th November in a 1-0 defeat at Godmanchester Rovers. Of their 7 home games they have won 5 and lost 2. Whilst Nuneaton sit on 12 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats, and have won their last 2 away games, at Northampton ON Chenecks and Daventry Town.
