AFC Telford v Southport

Second-placed Telford can expect a stern test when play-off chasers Southport make the trip to New Bucks Head on Saturday afternoon.

The Bucks trial leaders Kettering by three points but have played two extra matches while Southport sit in sixth place with 60 points from 33 fixtures.

Defender Richard Teesdale wont be included in the Bucks' squad as he is expected to complete a loan move to Unibond Premier Division Ilkeston Town on Friday.

Southport boss Peter Davenport will have to make do without the services of Mark Duffy after the winger suffered an injury in training on Thursday afternoon.

On loan Hartlepool striker Michael Rae has returned to training following a hamstring injury and is expected to play some part in Saturday's fixture.

Alfreton Town v Solihull Moors

Alfreton Town prepare for the visit of Solihull Moors on Saturday as they look to ensure Conference North football for next season.

Alfreton boss Nicky Law will go into the Easter period without Anton Brown (ankle), Josh Law (hamstring) and Rob Pacey (ankle).

However, he will have Matt Glass back along with new signing Jason St Juste for the two games in three days.

Solihull currently find themselves in 17th place and have collected 37 points from 34 games.

Burscough v Blyth Spartans

Burscough entertain Blyth Spartans at Victoria Park on Saturday as they hope to continue the form that has seen them lose just once in their last 10 league games.

The Linnets are boosted by the return of Tony McMillan following an injury and he is joined by Neil Fitzhenry who also returns to contention.

Blyth are missing the services of striker Phil Bell and he is expected to miss the rest of the season due to injury.

Robbie Dale and Andy Johnson have both returned to fitness and will be pushing for a starting berth along with midfielder Steve Birks.

Gainsborough v Tamworth

Gainsborough Trinity prepare for the visit of Tamworth on Saturday afternoon as they look to break into the top-half of the table.

Trinity moved up to 46 points with a comfortable win at Vauxhall Motors last weekend and hold a six-point advantage over the Lambs.

Tamworth boss Gary Mills is boosted by the return of goalkeeper Alex Cisak while Jake Sheridan faces a late test as he looks to shake off a niggling back problem.

Dave Bampton is still a major doubt after suffering an infected blister on his heel.

Harrogate Town v Leigh RMI

Harrogate Town play host to Leigh RMI on Saturday as they look to bounce back from the disappointment of last week's defeat at Solihull.

Denny Ingram serves the last game of a two match suspension on Saturday while it is rumoured that Dave Merris is on the verge of joining Guiseley.

Leigh RMI are expected to hand a debut to new signing James Dunn, who missed the game against Alfreton with a shoulder injury.

The Railwaymen find themselves at the foot of the Blue Square North table ahead of the busy Easter schedule and every single point gained will be a massive boost.

Hinckley Utd v Hucknall

Relegation-threatened Hinckley prepare for the visit of fellow strugglers Hucknall Town to Marstons Stadium and both sides will be desperate to collect all three points.

Hinckley have the chance to lift themselves out of the dreaded drop zone but will need to collect all three points to leapfrog their opponents into 19th place.

Hucknall recorded a morale-boosting win against Blyth Spartans last weekend and did so with a number of fist-team regulars missing due to injury and suspension.

Kettering v Nuneaton

League leaders Kettering Town entertain play-off hopefuls Nuneaton Borough at the A-Line Arena on Saturday as they look to make it four wins on the bounce.

Kevin Spencer (ankle) and Mark Rawle (Achilles) remain on the sidelines but Jean-Paul Marna is fully fit and will be vying for a starting place up front.

Nuneaton are expected to start with Carl Palmer after the former Redditch midfielder impressed in their draw against Barrow on Saturday whilst former Poppies skipper Craig McIlwain will play against the Poppies for the first time since leaving the club at the end of last season.

Redditch v Boston Utd

Redditch will be looking to break into the top-half on the Blue Square North table on Saturday with a good result against Tommy Taylor's Boston United.

The Reds trail the Pilgrims by three points but have one game still in hand. If they can collect all three points on Saturday, then they could potentially leapfrog mid-table Gainsborough into 12th place.

Boston will have to make do without the services of on-loan goalkeeper Simon Rayner, who has been recalled by Torquay United.

Stalybridge v Worcester

Celtic have no injury worries going into the Bank Holiday fixtures and Steve Burr once again is able to select from a full-strength squad.

Terry Barwick and James Dean will have to tread carefully as they are on nine and four bookings respectively and therefore on the brink of suspension.

That fact could influence Burr's team selection, and he could also choose to rest players to ensure they are fresh for the run-in to that hoped for play-off spot.

Burr is also hopeful of bringing in at least one fresh face for the last few games, having submitted seven days notice for a player currently with a Blue Square Premier club.

Worcester have no suspension worries ahead of their trip to Celtic and could welcome back a number of players from injury.

Mark Danks was not expected to play any further part this season, but made it to the bench in their 3-3 draw against Tamworth, with Rapinder Gill, Chris Smith and Jon Munday all returning to the starting line up.

However, Graham Ward suffered a knee injury on Monday night and looks set to miss several weeks.

Emeka Nwadike returns from suspension but is struggling with a hamstring injury.

Workington v Vauxhall Motors

Workington prepare for the visit of relegation-threatened Vauxhall Motors to Borough Park as they look to further distance themselves from the drop zone.

The Reds recorded a 1-1 draw with Hinckley last weekend and have collected 38 points from 32 fixtures.

Vauxhall manager Carl Macauley will be keen to see his side collect some points this weekend as they sit in 21st place with a disappointing season's tally of 27 points.
