Match preview: FC United vs AFC Telford United

Ahead of today’s match, we take a closer look at what we can expect from today’s opponents Telford.

As we look to secure our first home win of the season, there’s a palpable sense of positivity around the team, whose unbeaten run has now stretched to six games.

It’s been a promising few weeks for the club as we progressed into the semi finals of the Manchester Premier Cup on Tuesday.

Attention now turns to the league once more as we look to extend our unbeaten run.

Opponents AFC Telford will look to continue their own run of form. The visitors are unbeaten in their last four matches since an inconsistent patch towards the end of October.

Following last week’s 1-0 home win against Boston United, the away side will look to continue to cement their position towards the peak of the table in the play-off spots.
