Game week two of the Non League Premier: Northern season and the teams have had a few days to digest the first match. Here's the Radcliffe Borough - Witton Albion preview:

Radcliffe Borough form and stats

Radcliffe's last game was hosting Workington and winning 5-3. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Buxton (2-4).

As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Radcliffe Borough have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found seven matches with the results: Won four, drawn two and lost one.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Radcliffe as they have a new game in only three days, a Non League Premier: Northern match thankfully also at home. Bamber Bridge are visiting.

Last season, Radcliffe Borough's league statistics were 11 wins, 5 draws and 16 losses, resulting in a 16th position in the Non League Premier: Northern. Over these 32 matches they scored 34 goals and conceded 50. Playing at home last season Radcliffe Borough managed 7-5-4 (win-draw-lost) with 20 goals and 18 conceded.
