TEAM NEWS
Following Blyth's defeat at the hands of Frickley Athletic on Tuesday night, manager Tom Wade will be hoping for a reaction from his players as Colwyn Bay come to Croft Park. The return of Dan Maguire and Andrew Cartwright recent return to the match day squad will also allow Tom Wade to freshen up the starting XI should he feel that a change would be beneficial.
Colwyn Bay will hope that their strong away form continues (with 4 wins and 4 draws on the road this season), as it is their home form which has seen them sit as low in the league table, so the Spartans will need to be on their game if they hope to take something from the match.
