Competition: England Non League Premier: Northern
Date: Sat 13.April
Match begins: 14:00 (UTC)
Venue: Borough Park (3101 seats)

Struggling Workington will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Gainsborough Trinity in the upcoming league round. It’s 21st vs 5th and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a Non League Premier: Northern match only four days ago. This match was also played here at Borough Park. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Gainsborough Trinity have had more rest.

Workington form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories so far this season. Workington have only managed 4 wins, 2 draws and 12 losses so far from their games here at Borough Park. With seven home games in a row without a win, the Workington fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Bamber Bridge game long ago, can be stopped today. It's trouble wherever Workington are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now. They really need to get back to winning ways.

The Workington crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-2 to South Shields here at Borough Park in a Non League Premier: Northern match. Heartbreak before that as Workington lost 0-2 at Witton Albion's place.

Workington are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home, having created 20 goals in 18 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 34 goals have been conceded.
