Celtic see opportunity to extend their lead at the top

AFTER a week’s enforced break owing to the weather, Evo-Stik Premier Division leaders Farsley Celtic will be looking to extend their two-point advantage over second-placed Warrington Town.

Adam Lakeland’s men travel to lowly Bamber Bridge while Warrington make the trip to Stafford Rangers. It’s third versus first in the Evo-Stik East as Brighouse Town host leaders Morpeth Town tomorrow.

Second-placed Pontefract Collieries could move to within five points of Morpeth if they beat Frickley Athletic at home and Brighouse claim all three points.
