Whitby Town Will Jump Into Playoff Position With Win Tonight

Stalybridge's home stadium under the floodlights

The Blues head over the M62 to Stalybridge in the Northern Premier League fixture.

Whitby are 2 points and 1 place outside the playoffs, but victory tonight would see them leapfrog Warrington Town into that coveted 5th place.

They would have played a game more than Warrington but it's all about points on the board at this late stage in the season.

Whitby go into the match off the back of 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat in their last 5, whilst the hosts Stalybridge have only won 1 in their last 5, although that vicotry was just 3 days ago at Atherton Collieries.

Scarborough athletic will be looking on with interest tonight. A Whitby win would see the Blues go within 2 points of Boro, level on games played and both teams with 5 'cup finals' left to cement their playoff positions.

Matlock Town also play tonight. Currently they are level on points with Scarborough level on points with Boro but tonight is their game in hand. Matlock are at home to Radcliff.
