PREVIEW: Coventry Sphinx travel to Boldmere on Friday boosted by their win at Quorn on Saturday. Sphinx have just four games remaining of the season and a win at Boldmere would lift them above Boldmere and into 6th place. A win for Boldmere would lift them into 5th place above Shepshed Dynamo so there is plenty to play for, for both sides.
