Tomorrow Wombwell face strugglers AFC Dronfield Reserves at their temporary home at Shafton Community Centre.

The Wellers' final three home matches of the season will take place at Shafton Community Centre (High Street, Shafton) starting with tomorrow's game.

With Dodworth's game against Thurcroft already postponed Wombwell go into the game knowing they require just one point to secure a top three place.

A win for Wombwell and a defeat for Sheffield Union would also secure at least second as the club's enter the final month of the season.

Team News:

Wombwell are likely to see a number of changes from the side that lost on penalties to Denaby Main last weekend.

Luke Needham, Oliver Green and top scorer Luke Norbury are just three of the players hoping to return after missing the cup match.

There could also be debut's given to new signing Josh Gaze, and another player who the club hope to add to their ranks before the game.

Our Visitors:

Jamie Lawson is currently the club's top scorer this season with eight goals from ten appearances, while next in line James Culf has four from 17.

Last weekend they lost 7-3 at neighbours Ardsley Athletico, but had a heavily depleted team in a game in which the home side's keeper scored.

They currently sit ninth in the league, two points above Thurcroft with six wins and eleven loses in their 17 games.

Their goal difference grew worse last week and have minus eleven; the third worst in the league, but Wombwell will need to be careful as AFC Dronfield Reserves pulled off the shock result of the season last month with a 1-0 win at then leaders Sheffield Union.

Current Form (league only):

WTFC: DWWW
AFCD: LLWW
