Competition: England Vanarama National League North
Competition: Sat 22.April
Match begins: 14:00 (UTC)
Venue: The Chorley Group Victory Park Stadium (4100 seats)

Moving closer to the top sides is the target when these two mid-table sides duel. Both are trying to better their league status, Chorley in 11th and Peterborough Sports in 14th spot.

Peterborough is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

Peterborough Sports could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Northamptonshire Senior Cup game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Cogenhoe United. It will be interesting to see if they are fully ready and rested for this match, and/or if some changes in the lineup is necessary.
