Match Preview - Boston United v Chester FC

Saturday, 29 October 2022 10:33

The Blues are on the road in the league for the first time in over a month this weekend, Boston United the opposition.

Tuesday’s draw made it just one defeat in 13 for Chester, although Manager Calum McIntyre is well aware that the seven draws in that run need to start being turned into victories.

Boston’s league form has been up and down since Ian Culverhouse’s arrival at the start of last month. In his six National League North games in charge, the Pilgrims won their first three, but have since lost their last three in a row.

Kick off on Saturday afternoon is 3pm.
