Newly crowned league champions Wroxham travel to the Elgood's Fenland Stadium tonight to take on Wisbech Town (7:45 kick-off).

With the Ridgeons League title in the bag the Yachtsmen will be looking to break the 90-point barrier from their remaining three games.

Wroxham will be hoping for a repeat scoreline of when they last visited west Norfolk earlier this season.

Goals from Ben Thompson, Shaun Howes (pen), Paul Cook and Matt Daniels gave Wroxham a 4-1 win over the Fenman in an FA Cup tie back in September.

Wisbech are unbeaten in their last six games and were 2-0 winners at Felixtowe & Walton in their last outing on Saturday.

Steve Appleby’s side, currently fourth, could still finish the season in second place behind the Yachtsmen if Ely slip up in their remaining games.

Wroxham will be able to call on the services of first choice goalkeeper Scott Howie after missing Saturday’s win over Haverhill Rovers – but Gary Gilmore (work), Ryan Oakley (work), Matt Blake (ankle) and Remy Gordon (ill) are all out.
