Rosso return to Oxford Street for the second time in three-days as Ben Hunter’s side this time host the Pewits in Doncaster.
Just three days ago on Saturday Rosso were successful in registering three consecutive wins in the Northern Counties East League Premier after beating both Golcar United and Penistone Church, Rosso then delivered an impressive 4-1 victory against Handsworth on Saturday.
The Pewits managed by Richard Tracey come into the midweek fixture in Doncaster following a narrow 1-0 defeat in the Emirates FA Cup third qualifying round against National League North Alfreton Town at the weekend.
With Emley facing Non-League step 2 opposition on Saturday, in terms of the current NCEL Premier standings, there is seven points and places which separate 7th place Rossington Main and 14th in the table Pewits.

Last Time Out v Emley
Rossington came back from two-goals behind the last time the two sides met in what was a pre-season friendly at the start of last season in late July 2022. The Pewits went two-goals to the good inside the first half thanks to scorers Rikki Paylor and Dominic Riordan. Ryan Wharton then scored six minutes after the restart before a magnificent Ross Hannah hat-trick followed which secured a 4-2 home victory to set-up what would be the promotion winning NCEL Division One season for Rosso.
