7th Placed Scarborough Athletic face Southport at the Flamingo Land Stadium.
Once the excitement of the BBC TV broadcast of Football Focus is over on Saturday lunchtime there is also a big football match for Scarborough Athletic this afternoon.
Boro sit 7th in the NAtional League North Table and need to pick up points to stay in play-off contention, something which manager Jono Greening says is still very much possible.
Boro drew one all away at Chester Last weekend, today they face Southport.
Greening says the support from the fans has been solid and with 250 travelling to Chester last week the support has bolstered the team.
Boro will welcome back Kieran Glynn for the game following a two match suspension. Lewis Maloney is however doubtful after pulling up in Boro's last game at Chester with a hamstring injury and Luca Colville will be out of action with a toe injury. Dom Tear is currently injured, Ciaran McGuckin is a couple of games away from a return to the side.
Boro will be hoping to capitalise on a number of other sides in play-off contention facing each other this weekend, meaning points will be dropped come 5pm on Saturday.
Boro Chairman Trevor Bull says it's a key game:
Southport faced Alfreton on Tuesday night at Haig Avenue, whereas Boro have enjoyed a week's rest. Southport have won just three National League North fixtures since the teams last met in early December, resulting in a slide down the table to 16th place.
The two sides drew 1-1 at Southport back in December, with Southport grabbing a late equaliser.
Kick off at the Flamingo Land Stadium is at 3pm. Tickets are available at https://scarboroughathleticfc.ktckts.com/event/sca2223h20/southport-fc
If you can't make it to the ground on Saturday there will be live commentary on This is the Coast Extra from just before 3pm.
