Ar Tarn are currently third in the table – two points behind Blackstones who are not in league action this weekend.

And boss Steve Noble, who will be presented with his
manager of the month award for February before the game, will want his side to take full advantage and get the points on the board – especially as Blackstones will have two games in hand on Desborough after this weekend's programme.

But the Ar Tarn manager can take heart from the fact his side is in fine form and go into the game on a nine-match unbeaten run – winning six of them in that time.

"I've said all season that's important to win your home matches and that's certainly the case now with this game," said Noble.

"However, I'm feeling very confident about it as we have been playing well at home all season with a young squad and now we've started to find some consistency which is what everyone is always striving for."

Desborough have doubts over goalkeeper Michael Evans (ankle) and Michael Stanton (back), both of whom will need late fitness tests.

Desborough from: Evans, Stanton, Logan, Pownall, Malone, Mills, O'Neill, Sneddon, Doherty, McClarty, Cossey, Gilsenan, Noble, Byrne, Caswell, Armstrong.

FOR the first time in three weeks, Wellingborough Town will play on a Saturday when they welcome high-flying St Neots Town to the Dog & Duck.

And Doughboys boss Les Hornby will be hoping the return to the usual playing time will help his side back to winning ways.

Wellingborough have lost their last two and dropped out of contention for third place as a result with a 13-point gap between themselves and the top three.

That may well mean another season without promotion for Hornby's side – although his first aim is to get back into the top six.

The Doughboys are currently eighth – seven points behind sixth-placed Deeping Rangers – with tomorrow's opponents St Neots sandwiched between them.

"We've had a few indifferent performances over the last few weeks and performances haven't been good in all honesty," admitted Hornby.

"When I took over as manager I said I would give all the players a chance.

"I've done that and now I see that some are not up to it so I will be looking to strengthen the squad and bring a couple of players in over the next couple of weeks.

"That said, it's not all doom and gloom. We do have some good players here and the top six is certainly within our grasp."

The Doughboys have two missing for this weekend with Rob Gould banned and Matt Green unavailable.

Wellingborough from: Malong, Wooding, Randall, Pritchard, Dowling, Glass, Taylor, Spaughton, Ainge, Haughton, Mitchell, Hancock, Hewitt.
