TEAM NEWS

After the win at King's Lynn, Spartans will be hoping to continue their late push for that last play off place, which is going to be fought for until the end of the season. Winning games against rival play off hopefuls is a great way of boosting chances and this is what is the target for Saturday's tie with second placed Skelmersdale United.

Damen Mullen returned to the squad at King's Lynn after a long term injury so he will be hoping to keep his place in the starting 11. Conor Grant had to receive some treatment to his head after his clean sheet on the road but apart from that knock, Tom Wade will be hoping to have that selection headache all managers will love to have.

IN THE AWAY DUG OUT

Tommy Lawson - Ex Prescot Cables manager, been at Skelmersdale for 7 years.

DANGER MAN

Dean Astbury - Has scored 22 league goals.
