Thierry Audel heading Brackley in front, before Ellis Myles doubled the lead 11 minutes from time.

In the league, Paul Carden’s side sit 10th in the table, with two games in hand and just five points behind Basford United in second spot.

Lancaster head into the fixture following a 1-0 victory over Matlock Town at the Giant Axe.

HEAD TO HEAD

During the 2018/19 season, Tony Gray’s stunning free kick claimed a last minute point for the Yellows in January.

The free-kick, Gray’s 12th goal of that season, even made a cameo in an Adidas’s advert with footballing superstars David Beckham and Zinedine Zidane.

The sides last met in August, as the Yellows came behind to claim a 3-1 victory. It was the first away win at Lancaster, with an own goal and two more from Josh Amis and James Caton – their first for the club.
