The Boatmen
Sholing have responded perfectly to last year’s disappointing late decline, winning 6 from 6 so far this season. Brothers Dan and Byron Mason are constant threats whilst forward Lee Wort has hit double figures in all competitions already this season. Goalkeeper Ryan Gosney is also in solid early season form.
The Farm
Farm reaped the rewards of the returning Owen Howe with his brace last week and he will be looking to add to his 6 this term. Right back Mason Winter earned plaudits for his impressive performance last week whilst teenager Evander Grubb looks to be going from strength to strength.
The Form
As mentioned, the hosts are a perfect 6 from 6 in the league this season. Their only defeat so far this year was to higher league opposition in the FA Cup. Farm are still searching for a maximum in the league but are buoyed by a big cup win last week. The performances are ever improving, so this is far harder to call than the league table would suggest.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
