Ashton United desperately need points on Wednesday, Oct 21 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.

Avro come into this fixture in red-hot form (4W from last 5). Ashton United travel struggling badly (0W 3L in last 5), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. Avro won their last outing, while Ashton United suffered defeat — home advantage backed by momentum.

Verdict: The gulf in league position makes Avro clear favorites, but Ashton United have shown they can grind out results. Expect Avro to take the points, potentially without being at their best.
