Ashton United desperately need points on Tuesday, Dec 15 at 8:45 PM in the Northern Premier League. With the team sitting in the bottom three, this is quickly becoming a must-win situation.

Ashton United come into this fixture struggling badly (0W 4L in last 5). Bury, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 1D 2L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks.

Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Ashton United a slight edge, but Bury are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
