Bristol Manor Farm return to home action on Saturday afternoon against Paulton Rovers, following consecutive away trips in the Division One South. Here is all the information ahead of the fixture.
The Farm’s fifth straight victory against Lymington last week pushed Manager Lee Lashenko’s side into the last play-off position – but at the top of the form table with 16 points from their last six matches. Trailing by a single goal at half-time, Farm clawed their way back in champion style courtesy of goals from Jayden Nielsen and Mike Bryant.
Two gutsy, hard-fought away performances will give Lashenko’s side confidence heading into another crucial match against Paulton Rovers at The Creek. Saturday’s match against Rovers will be the fourth time the two sides meet this season. The first two matches ended favourably for Paulton, knocking Farm out of two cup competitions, whereas the third ended 3-1 to Bristol Manor Farm back in October.
The Robins have enjoyed a strong season in the Division One South, sitting in 7th position with 41 points. John Rendell’s side have won 2 and lost 5 from their past seven matches, losing 2-1 last time out at home to Bideford AFC.
