Preview - AFC Fylde

Preview - AFC Fylde

Craig Singleton22 Oct 2024 - 13:55

Midweek action is on the agenda at the Jakemans Community Stadium on Wednesday evening.

Boston United play host to AFC Fylde (kick-off 7.45pm) in their latest National League encounter.

Both sides find themselves in the bottom four ahead of kick-off, with Ian Culverhouse’s Pilgrims aiming to bounce back from their 1-0 home defeat at the hands of FC Halifax Town at the weekend. Fylde, meanwhile, lost 4-0 at Dagenham and Redbridge in Kevin Phillips’ first league match in charge.

Fylde completed a league double over the Pilgrims in 2022-2023, as Adam Murray’s Coasters clinched the National League North title.

This will be the first Step 1 meeting between the clubs, following United’s own promotion earlier this year.

Cameron Gregory, Jake Lovelace, Mitch Roberts, Martin Woods and Tony Weston remain sidelined for the Pilgrims.

LIVE COVERAGE
The match will be shown live on National League TV.

Elsewhere, BBC Radio Lincolnshire full-match commentary, courtesy of Michael Hortin and Craig Singleton, is available online.

Updates on X will be available via @bostonunited throughout the evening.
