COLNE manager John Lister is hoping to take his side through to the third round of the Worthington Challenge Trophy for the first time tomorrow.
They face first division side Abbey Hey but Lister reckons his second division side will match them.
"I am not particularly worried about them being in a division higher," he said. "They have had a bad start to the season and I think most of the teams in the second division could beat teams in the bottom half of the first."
Colne are without right wing-back Ben Callon who took a knock above his knee in Saturday's 2-0 defeat at Norton.
"Everyone looked tired on Saturday after so many games this season but we have had a week off now so hopefully we will be refreshed."
Lister is currently looking at bringing in two new faces. One is a current NWCL second division defender and the other is a former Rossendale player who has moved away from the area and might be looking to return.
