BACUP manager Brent Peters is hoping he can use the Silsden pitch to his advantage this weekend.

Silsden play their home games on Keighley Rugby Ground and Peters said he was looking forward to the trip on Saturday.

"I'd like to think that with the big pitch we can get the ball down and play some football.

"I think our boys will relish playing there, the majority of them are comfortable on the ball so it should suit us."

Bacup kept up their unbeaten start with a win at Squires Gate on Tuesday.

They welcome back captain Ian Hughes, and Lee Kershaw is available for selection.

Defender Matthew Cross, however, may require an X-Ray on his injured foot with fears he has a chipped bone.
