Salisbury's festive schedule starts at Hungerford

Friday, 22 December 2023 00:00

Salisbury's busy festive football schedule begins with a trip to Hungerford Town tomorrow (Saturday, 23rd December).

It's yet another tricky away tie for the Whites, as Hungerford are on a long unbeaten run in the league since October 10th.

The West Berkshire side are unbeaten at home so far this season with five wins and five draws and they are the joint top-scoring side in the league with 45 goals. However, they have conceded more goals than any other team in the top ten in the Southern League Premier South.

Brian Dutton's side returned to winning ways and the top of the table following their 2-1 win against Hendon last Saturday following two away defeats; they will be hoping to build on that at Hungerford.

The game kicks off at Hungerford's Bulpit Lane at 3 pm.

Salisbury are three points clear at the top of the table and will hope to remain there for the 'Cathedral Derby' on Boxing Day as they welcome Winchester City to the Ray Mac. Kick-off is at 3 pm, and the club are hoping for a bumper crowd.
