Preview: The Mikes v Friar Lane & Epworth
Match Preview: Tuesday 13th April 7:30pm
Boldmere St Michael’s v Friar Lane & Epworth
Aspire Midland Football Alliance
The Mikes will be looking to build on Saturday’s excellent win at second place Coalville Town, as they prepare to welcome Friar Lane & Epworth to the Trevor Brown Memorial Ground.
Lane meanwhile, came from 3-1 down to secure a point at Shifnal Town thanks to two late goals. Lane are no strangers to the Trevor Brown Memorial Ground this season, having visited us in the Polymac Services League Cup in November. The night proved totally forgettable for the home side, crashing to a 6-1 defeat.
Instead, The Mikes will be looking to recreate the form they have previously shown against the Leicestershire outfit, winning their previous four encounters, including a narrow 2-1 win at Whittier Road earlier this season.
