Boston United make their long-awaited return to National League North action at The Jakemans Stadium on Tuesday evening.

The Pilgrims play host to Blyth Spartans (kick-off 7.45pm) in their first home fixture, barring the Lincolnshire Senior Cup, since their 2-0 win over Southport on September 28.

Craig Elliott's side have since played eight away matches — five in the league and three in the Emirates FA Cup, with three more league, FA Cup and Buildbase FA Trophy encounters to come before their next home action.

Elliott will be without the services of injured duo Simon Ainge and Alex Penny for the visit of Lee Clark's Spartans, who drew 4-4 at Kettering Town on Saturday.

Demeaco Duhaney and Martyn Woolford are eligible to play ahead of their impending suspensions.

Spartans are unbeaten in their last five matches, following a difficult start to the season, with former Newcastle United youngster Callum Roberts starring for Clark's side over recent weeks.

United won last season's corresponding fixture 4-0.

Tuesday's match referee is Tom Kirk, who last took charge of the Pilgrims in November 2017 at Leamington.

Matchday updates for those not in attendance will be published on Twitter via @bostonunited — starting with team news at 6.45pm.
