HARTLEPOOL, Saturday's visitors to Gigg Lane, are unbeaten on their travels so far this campaign.

They will prove the stiffest test of Bury's promotion credentials so far but player boss Andy Preece remained confident his charges could re-find their early form.

"They are top of the league and will be the best gauge of our ability but we will be up for it," he said.

"We will have to be at our best but I feel we are more than capable of turning them over."
