And Law is keen to ensure the Poppies don’t slip up as they bid to extend their unbeaten run.
“I am sure there will be a lot of expectation on us but that’s no different to any other time of the season at Kettering,” he said.
“We have had our moments when we have slipped up against teams further down the table and we have to make sure it doesn’t happen again.

“They are learning to fight and scrap for everything and they are picking up big results when they need them.
“The good thing is that we have given ourselves an opportunity and we must try to take it.”
The Poppies will be boosted by the return of captain Brett Solkhon following a hamstring injury while there will also be a late check on striker Rene Howe.
