Match Preview

In-form Rosso make the trip over to Sheffield on Saturday as Ben Hunter’s Blue Army face The Ambers at the Express Worktops Stadium.

Rossington who moved up to fourth in the Northern Counties East League Premier at the weekend with a strong victory at home to Penistone Church, travel to Olivers Mount having racked up six wins and one draw in their last seven league outings.

The Ambers managed by Joe Froggratt will be looking to improve on their recent dip in form at Non-League step 5 as Handsworth haven’t won any of their last five league games and have just picked up two out of a possible 15 points.

With Rosso claiming the spoils in the first fixture between the two earlier in the season, there is currently ten points separating Rossington who sit currently in the play-off places compared to mid-table Handsworth. Hunter’s Rossington are also in possession of one game in hand over The Ambers.

Last Time Out v Handsworth

Rossington broke two records against The Ambers in the previous fixture at the end of September as Rosso registered their first Non-League step 5 Saturday home victory and also marked their first back-to-back set of wins in the NCEL Premier. In front of 154 spectators on a warm but rainy afternoon in Doncaster, Brad Grayson, Jordan Buckham, Manasse Kianga and Ross Hannah all scored before Brandon Bagley’s consolation goal for The Ambers which saw the game finish 4-1 in Rosso’s favour.
