Wilcox said ahead of the game, "With two games now on the road, starting on Saturday with a trip North to Marske, if you possibly can, please, come along and give us your support. it really does help the players. Let’s hope we can keep our good form going and bring home some points." Victory for the Blues could see Wilcox's men move within four points of the play-off spots, and though too much can't be read into previous results, last season Gainsborough completed the double over the yellows, winning 3-0. A Clayton Donaldson double and stoppage time third from Liam Waldock, before winning 6-2 back at the Northolme. Goals coming from Waldock again, Curtis Durose and second half substitute, Fraser Preston.

First, standing in the Holy Blues' way is the Marske side, sitting middle of the road in the form table, with nine points taken from the last six games. The Holy Blues having picked up two more points in those six games, only tasting defeat at the hands of the current table toppers, Radcliffe. Managed by former Hartlepool boss, Graeme Lee, the Seasiders are a point off safety, but with a -22 goal difference, as opposed to last weekend's opponents Bradford (Park Avenue) just above the drop zone (-11). The gap opens up to seven points from 17th place Bamber Bridge.

Trinity boss, Russ Wilcox has options within his squad following the introductions of Justin Iwobi and Danny Devine ahead of last weekend's 2-1 win over Bradford (Park Avenue). The two making an impression from the substitutes bench - and with a couple of training sessions under their belts with their new team mates, they'll certainly be chomping at the bit, as they look to force their way into the Manager's first choice eleven. An XI that has so far been unchanged in four games. Will Wilcox make it five straight unchanged elevens in a row, or use the options available to him?
