Witton Albion welcome Atherton Collieries on Saturday, Feb 27 at 4:00 PM in a Northern Premier League – West Division fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.

Witton Albion come into this fixture in good form (3W 0D 2L recently). Atherton Collieries travel in mixed form (2W 2D 1L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. Witton Albion head into this on the back of a defeat, while Atherton Collieries arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.

Verdict: Little separates these two on form or history. Home advantage could be the deciding factor — a narrow Witton Albion win or a draw looks most likely.
