Preview: Warrington Town vs Radcliffe

Warrington Town are back in action for the third time in the space of a week as they host Radcliffe at the Cal.Delivery Stadium in the National League North.

The Yellows secured an important victory over fellow relegation battlers Rushall Olympic on home soil last weekend, before falling to a 3-1 defeat against high-flying Chester in midweek.

Saturday's fixture marks the start of a crucial period for Paul Carden's side, with a Cheshire Senior Cup clash against Crewe Alexandra on Tuesday to follow, before facing another six-pointer as they travel to face Oxford City next Saturday.

Below, we've compiled everything you need to know ahead of the fixture.

Team news

New signing Ben Hatton will go into contention to make his debut for Warrington Town after joining on loan from Rotherham United on Thursday.

Josh Amis, who was substituted in the first half of Tuesday's defeat in Chester with a hand injury, will also be hopeful of appearing in the matchday squad after his injury was not as bad as first feared.

Bohan Dixon will also return after serving his three-match suspension for the red card he incurred against Chorley.

Mikey O'Neill preview

The Warrington Town squad is ready to tackle their remaining league fixtures with confidence and belief as the fight for survival continues, says midfielder Mikey O'Neill.

The Yellows' next two fixtures against fellow strugglers Radcliffe and Oxford City have been dubbed relegation six-pointers, with Paul Carden's side currently five points from safety having played two games more than fifth-bottom Oxford.

With the need for wins growing by the week, Town come into Saturday's game hoping to build on a string of much-improved performances, including a 2-0 victory over Rushall Olympic in their last home outing.

"They’re two six-pointers which, if we were to win, would put us in a much better place, so we all know what we need to do and how important they are," O'Neill said ahead of Saturday's game.

"We’ve got belief that we can do it. Against Chester on Tuesday night, we felt coming in at half-time that the game was there for us, and we had real confidence after how we’d played in the first half.

"Then Matty McDonald had a big chance in the second half, and if that went in, the result could’ve been a lot different.

"It wasn’t to be in the end, but it should give us confidence going into these games coming up after going toe-to-toe, especially in the first half, with one of the top sides in the division."
