United readying for Worcester clash

Boston United entertain Worcester City in an important Blue Square Bet North contest at The Jakemans Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Both sides will be aiming to banish the memories of FA Cup with Budweiser exits last weekend. The Pilgrims had two players sent off en route to a 3-1 home defeat by Altrincham, while Worcester were beaten 1-0 courtesy of a last-gasp goal at Bromley.

Jason Lee will be hoping to have the bulk of his selection options available, although full-back Gary Silk is unlikely to figure due to hamstring trouble.

Young strikers Charley Sanders and Korey Dyer-Stewart are once again included in the United squad.

Ben Fairclough and Spencer Weir-Daley are eligible to play as their suspensions do not start for another week.

Worcester have collected six points from five away matches to date — with a victory over Solihull Moors (1-0) and a defeat at Gainsborough Trinity (1-0) adding to three draws on the road.

Last season’s corresponding fixture ended 3-2 in Worcester’s favour.

Fancy a flutter? Blue Square Bet have priced the Pilgrims at 6/5, City at 13/8 and the draw at 5/2.
