The Blues face newly-promoted Peterborough Sports this weekend, in game four of the National League North season.

Both teams come into this one having made a steady start to the new campaign, having won one, drawn one and lost one.

Calum McIntyre’s men fell to their first defeat in midweek at the hands of Hereford, although took plenty of positives from another encouraging performance as they were left to rue missed chances in front of a raucous home crowd.

Saturday’s opponents Peterborough Sports have an identical record thus far, although they have scored and conceded one extra. They were the standout performers of the division on matchday two, winning 3-0 away at Southport.

The Turbines are managed by Jimmy Dean, and won the Southern League Premier Division Central Play-Offs last season to earn promotion to step two.
