The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Southport are in the 12th position while the guests worry at 22nd.

Blyth Spartans could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Vanarama National League North game only four sleeps ago. That game was also an away game, at Spennymoor Town. 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.
