Worcester City welcome Corby Town to Claines Lane for their penultimate league fixture on Saturday for a 3pm kick-off.
City will be looking to be on the better end of the result this time around after the teams’ last meeting in August. A goal in each half for Corby Town without reply led to a 2-0 defeat at Steel Park for the Blue and Whites.
Chris Cornes’ men will be giving everything to get themselves over the line in the race for play-off places, with City having struggled in the league recently, having two draws and two losses in their last four league fixtures. The last home win was a 2-0 victory over Coventry Sphinx back in March.
Corby Town will be a tough test. They are currently 2nd in the Northern Premier League Midlands Division and will be on the hunt for the points required to ensure they maintain that position and play the team that finishes 5th when the time comes for the play-offs. Corby Town are in complete contrast to City, having won their last four league games.
City remain 5th in the league at the moment, but their dip in form has allowed 6th placed Sporting Khalsa to get within touching distance of the final play-off place. The highest points tally Khalsa can reach is 71, while City’s is 73, meaning that two wins from their last two games are vital to ensure they make it to the play-offs.
