Play-off chasing Doughboys on the road again as they head to Racing Club Warwick
Wellingborough Town are back on the road on Saturday when they make the trip to mid-table Racing Club Warwick (ko 3pm).
The Doughboys are in the thick of a thrilling race for a play-off place, and manager Jake Stone will be hoping his players can dig deep once more to bag three more precious points.
Borough are currently on a brilliant run of just one defeat in their past 15 Pitching-In Northern Premier League Midlands Division matches.
It is a run that has lifted them right into the play-off picture, but there will also be frustration at the Dog & Duck, as four draws in their past six games has seen them miss the chance to ensconce themselves in the top five.
The latest stalemate came in Wednesday night’s county derby at Corby Town, with Jack O’Connor on target in a 1-1 draw, and that was the same score in Saturday’s home date with Sutton Coldfield Town, who grabbed a late leveller from the penalty spot.
A win would have seen the Doughboys move up to fifth, but as it is they remain sixth, and a point behind Coleshill and fourth-placed Belper Town.
They also missed the chance to jump into the top five on goal difference thanks to that late equaliser on Saturday, and they will now also be looking anxiously over their shoulders at neighbours AFC Rushden & Diamonds.
Elliot Sandy’s side made it four straight wins as they saw off Coventry Sphinx on Tuesday, and they are now seventh, just two points behind the Doughboys and with two games in hand.
Saturday's trip to a Racing Club side not yet out of the play-off chase themselves will be a tricky one for the Doughboys, but the home side, who are 11th and nine points off the top five, have struggled for results in recent weeks and in midweek lost their manager.
Boss Scott Easterlow quit the club after more than 300 games in charge to take the hot seat at National League North side Leamington.
Racing are currently on a run of seven matches without a win in the league, but on Saturday made the trip to Belper and came away with a point after a hard-fought 0-0 draw.
When the two sides met at the Dog & Duck earlier in the season, Borough were comfortable 3-1 winners thanks to two goals from top-scorer Will Jones and another from Danny Draper.
After Saturday, the Doughboys have a free week before they entertain Long Eaton United on Saturday, March 21.
