Competition: England Non League Premier: Southern
Date: Sat 12.October
Match begins: 14:00 (UTC)
Venue: Lodge Road (6745 seats)

An important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 21st and the visitors in 16th place.

Yate Town have less rest than Metropolitan Police FC in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a Non League Premier: Southern game only four days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus Hartley Wintney, was also a home game here at Lodge Road. The away team is better rested. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at Hartley Wintney.
