Whickham travel to Whitley Bay

Whitley Bay have enjoyed the start to their EBAC Northern league campaign having suffered just one defeat so far.

Whitley sit second in the league behind Bishop Auckland and have a game in hand on teams around them.

Elliott Day has found the net in five of his last six games for the team from the coast, the former Carlisle United man is Whitley’s top scorer this campaign.

Former Lang Jacks goalkeeper Dan Lister will likely be between the sticks for the home side on Saturday.

Whickham are looking to rectify Tuesday’s heavy 5-0 defeat to Newton Aycliffe when they travel to North Tyneside.

We will be without forward Stephen Hall after he has moved to Brandon United on a three-month loan.

Kick off is Saturday 3pm, Hillheads Park.
