Wibsey play host to Hallamshire this weekend

Wibsey look to have the match fitness edge as Hallamshire haven't played a league game since the end of September, getting a HWO against Garforth mid October and only playing 3 competitive league games this season so far.

Previous results, however have gone the south Yorkshire teams way as can be seen in the head to head below, Wibsey are a much improved team this season whereas Hallamshire look to be treading water where they have excelled previously.

The Villagers are only one place above Hallamshire in the League at the moment and can jump Rossington into 3rd place if results go our way, Rossington face league leaders Hornsea this weekend who only have one loss (against Wibsey) this season.

Since Hallamshire joined Yorkshire 5 in 2013-2014 season, Wibsey have yet to beat them, always closer in the home games, this could be the best chance yet for The Villagers to get a South Yorkshire scalp.
