Following the disappointment of the early Whitworth Cup exit last Saturday, the First Team aim to bounce back straight away against Wyke Wanderers tomorrow.

The match, which is at Whitechapel Road, has a 2 pm kick-off. The weather isn't looking too great, however, with heavy rain forecast all day.

Our Opponents.

Following relegation from the Premier Division last season, many tipped Wyke as one of the teams to challenge for promotion this campaign. So far, however, they have struggled to get momentum in the league and find themselves second from bottom at present. At home, they have picked up six points with two wins from six games. They have scored 12 times, which averages 2.0 goals per home game and have conceded 13, which averages 2.2 goals per home game.

A look at the leading goalscorers for Division 1 shows that Ashley Andrews leads the way for Wyke with three goals.

Head To Head.

A look through the database shows that this may well be the first meeting of the two teams.

Team News For Rangers.

Manager Dan Marshall will be looking for an immediate response to last weeks result against Ripon City. Several players are carrying minor knocks, but the management team should be able to choose from a good pool of available bodies, so it should be a strong side that represents Rangers.

A quick check of the Suspended Players list from the FA indicates that both teams have no problems.

The Man In The Middle.

Mr Stuart Ramsden will be the referee. This is his sixth game in charge this season and, so far, he has issued three yellow cards and sent one player to the Sin-Bin.
