RADCLIFFE look to extend their unbeaten league run to seven matches when Witton Albion visit Stainton Park on Saturday.

The Cheshire side, bubbling under the UniBond First Division play-off places, will provide a stern test for Kevin Glendon's men who missed out on claiming an automatic promotion slot after drawing 2-2 at Chorley last weekend.

With second placed North Ferriby United's game at Kidsgrove Athletic postponed a win at Victory Park would have catapulted Boro over the East Yorkshire club, but only a late Jodie Banim penalty salvaged a point for Boro who found the Chorley surface unsuited to their neat footballing style.

Witton, managed by former Bury FC full-back Benny Phillips, currently sit in sixth place in the table with 49 points from 28 games and followed up a useful 1-0 victory at Farsley Celtic at the weekend with a 0-0 draw against Leek on Tuesday night.

The stalemate, at a freezing Wincham Park, was the first goalless game Albion had been involved in all season and they will have been disappointed with that result as a win would have pushed them up to fourth place, two points behind Boro.

Nevertheless, the draw extended their unbeaten run to nine games and it should be a keenly contested match come 3pm on Saturday.

Kevin Glendon is in the enviable position of having a full squad to choose from with only one or two minor niggles following the physical encounter at Chorley.

Meanwhile, Phillips who has done wonders in recent weeks with a depleted team will be missing skipper Brian Pritchard who sits out the game with a one match suspension.

In the corresponding game at Wincham Park four weeks ago Banim and Richard Landon were on target in a 2-2 draw.
