Fourth-placed Belper are on an unbeaten eight game run which has seen them win seven. Even counting a goalless draw at promotion rivals Kimberley Miners Welfare, they have scored 26 times in those eight matches - 12 of those goals coming in the past two contests, a 7-1 win against Ingles and 5-1 success at Birstall United.
In contrast, Neil Miller’s Sports side sit 14th and chasing their first win since December 11’s 4-2 win at home to Aylestone Park. However, two contests have been postponed in that time, most recently the weekend’s home clash against Lutterworth Athletic, which saw a frozen pitch put paid to action.
Saturday’s match against Belper kicks off at 3pm.
