NEIGHBOURS Warrington Rylands and Warrington Town are about to go head-to-head for the second and final time this season.
The two sides are close together in the Northern Premier League Premier Division table, so precious points as well as local bragging rights are at stake at Gorsey Lane on Saturday.
Here’s all the info you need about the match…
WHAT TIME IS KICK OFF?
The match will get underway at 3pm.
HOW DO I BUY TICKETS?
More than 1,500 fans turned out for the midweek reverse fixture at Cantilever Park in October and a similar gate is expected on Saturday.
As such, supporters are advised to purchase tickets in advance online by heading to ticketpass.org/event/EIQPOH/w
Tickets cost £10 for adults, £7 for concessions (ages 16-18 and over 65s) and £2 for under 16s.
There is limited car parking at Rylands Recreation Club.
The on-site 1906 Bar will be showing the Manchester derby between United and City from 12.30pm, with hot and cold food and drinks available both inside and outside the ground.
WHAT HAPPENED IN THE LAST MEETING?
The clash between the two neighbours at Cantilever Park on October 4 had pretty much everything you would want in a football match.
Despite being forced to play midfielder Steve Irwin in goal after loan keeper Sam Tickle was recalled by parent club Wigan Athletic at the last minute, Rylands raced into a 2-0 lead thanks to Callum Dolan’s double.
Stefan Mols reduced the deficit for Town after the break, only for Kane Drummond’s well-taken goal to restore the visitors’ two-goal lead.
Even though Luke Duffy pulled another goal back, it looked as though Town’s chances had gone when Bohan Dixon was sent off in injury time.
With their last throw of the dice, however, Town snatched a 3-3 draw when Rylands’ James Neild diverted a cross into his own net.
WHO ARE THE FAVOURITES?
Form can often go out of the window in games like this but at the moment, both sides appear in good shape.
Town are just ahead in the table as they sit fourth - two points and two places ahead of their neighbours - having put together a six-match unbeaten run.
Before Saturday's 3-0 defeat to Ashton United, Rylands had put together a solid run of one defeat in seven league games to stay in play-off contention.
