WEEKEND PREVIEW

Runcorn Town face a tough home game against Newton on Saturday as they look to continue their title push against a side who have already beaten them once this season.

Newton ended Town's unbeaten start to the season in December with Ged King scoring an 89th minute winner, but Town do have a good home record against them with Jason Carey and Mike Boyle scoring on a 2-1 win last season.

Elsewhere West Kirby visit Runcorn to take on Halton with the home side already taken points off Town, Lairds and Heswall this season. Cammell Laird Reserves are at Castrol Social where the home side have only lost one of their last five, with Heswall travelling to Helsby who have lost just three times at home all season.

In Division Three, match of the day is 1st v 2nd as Hale entertain Town Reserves. Hale have only beaten Town once previously with Town having a 100% record at Hale. It's also the battle of the hotshots as Aarron Stafford (26 league goals) takes on former Town player Paul Hart (25 league goals).

Elsewhere third placed Richmond Raith Rovers take on Ellesmere Port Reserves which should be a formality for the home side who have scored 12 and conceded one in five previous ties.

Fourth placed Prescot Cables Reserves do not play, with fifth placed Christleton Reserves at Chester rivals Upton A.A. Reserves
