Boston United are back on home soil in National League North on Saturday afternoon with the visit of Chorley (kick-off 3.00pm).

The two sides, regular opponents over recent seasons and more accustomed to challenging at the top end of the table, both find themselves searching for their first victory of the campaign.

While United followed successive defeats to Southport and Gloucester City with a 0-0 draw at Banbury United on Tuesday, the Magpies have followed up their 1-0 defeat at AFC Telford United on the opening day with successive 1-1 draws at home to Darlington and Blyth Spartans.

The Pilgrims will be without the services of injured striker Jordan Burrow (ankle) ā€“ but expect to have an otherwise fully-fit squad to choose from.

Captain Luke Shiels is available ā€“ with his one-match suspension not kicking in until next weekend.

Last season's corresponding fixture ended 2-2, with Jake Wright grabbing a stoppage time leveller for the Pilgrims.

BBC Radio Lincolnshire online full-match commentary, courtesy of Rob Makepeace and Craig Singleton, is available.
