Match Preview - Chester FC v Leamington

Friday, 3 December 2021 21:48

Interim Manager Danny Livesey takes charge of his first home game this weekend, as Leamington visit the Deva Stadium.

Last Saturday, the 36-year-old defender and UEFA B Licence Coach was in the dugout as we were narrowly beaten at Curzon in the FA Trophy. Charlie Jolley was on the scoresheet, and the Blues were boosted this week by the news that his loan from Tranmere Rovers has been extended until the New Year.

Leamington currently sit 8th in the table, just outside the Play-Off places. The Brakes were also beaten in the trophy last weekend, a 3-0 home defeat to Alfreton Town.

During the curtailed campaign of 2020/21, we were victorious in this fixture at the Deva by three goals to two. Danny Elliott was at the double with Brad Bauress also on the scoresheet back in October of last year.

Kick off on Saturday afternoon is 3pm.
