Match Preview

Sandbach's first of four games this week starts off with a trip to the seaside as they take on fellow play off hopefuls AFC Blackpool on Saturday.

After not playing for 2 weeks, United will be raring to go as they continue their play off push. A win for Sandbach could potentially see them go 7 points clear of local rivals Alsager Town who currently occupy the last play off spot.

Blackpool did Sandbach a favour a few weeks ago by beating play off rivals Prestwich 3-2, although this time Sandbach will not want to see them pick up any points.

A win for Blackpool could see them go to within 3 points of the play offs, despite playing a game more than most other teams.

Sandbach will be hoping to give their fans something to cheer about and make that long journey to the Lancashire coast worth while.
