vs Prediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

Rylands come off a 1-1 draw with Stockton Town, played just two weeks ago; before that three straight wins, 3-1 over Hyde United, 3-1 over Bamber Bridge and 2-1 away at Alfreton Town, and further back a 2-3 loss away at Workington. Stockton Town, meanwhile, come off that same 1-1 draw away at Rylands; before that a 1-2 defeat away at Guiseley, a 2-2 draw also with Guiseley, a 0-2 defeat against Redcar Athletic and, further back, a 3-5 loss away at Avro. The head to head record is close, with five recent meetings: the most recent a 1-1 draw, further back a 1-2, a 3-1 and a 1-3 (both played at reversed venues) and, further back, another 1-3. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
