It’s a big clash for Bishops Cleeve this weekend, as they get ready to take on league leaders Frome Town.
The Mitres are coming off a draw against Portishead Town, with a goal from Jake Lee securing the point.
Paul Collicutt’s side are now unbeaten in five with two wins and three draws going into the final 13 games.
Cleeve currently sit two points behind the playoff spots, with Shaftesbury in front of the Mitres, who have 11 games to go.
The homeside, Frome, are 12 points clear from the top, with Malvern behind them as they look to secure promotion to the Southern Premier Division.
The Robins haven’t lost since October and are looking to keep that streak going against the Mitres this weekend.
Their last five games have seen four wins and a draw.
The two sides have played each other only six times. Bishops Cleeve haven’t won in any of them, only managing a 2-2 draw against the Robins in 2023. The two sides played each other this season, with a 2-1 loss for Cleeve in January.
