United braced for Brakes challenge

Leamington are Saturday's visitors as Boston United return to The Jakemans Stadium in Vanarama National League North action.

The Pilgrims will be aiming to build upon last weekend's morale-boosting 2-1 victory at Kidderminster Harriers at the same time the Brakes were relinquishing a half-time lead to lose 5-1 at Southport.

Leamington are winless in their last eight league encounters, although six of those matches have ended all-square.

United boss Craig Elliott will check on the fitness of top goalscorer Nicky Walker, who was consigned to the bench against Kidderminster after being deemed unfit to start.

Jay Rollins is set to feature once again as he continues his comeback from a long-standing adductor problem.

Last season's corresponding fixture ended 1-0 to the Brakes, who were 2-0 victors over the Pilgrims earlier this campaign.

Saturday's match referee is Aaron Jackson, who has taken charge of two United victories so far this season — the league match at Curzon Ashton and the FA Trophy tie at Ashton United.

Matchday updates for those not in attendance will be published on Twitter via @bostonunited — starting with team news at 2.00pm.
