Match Preview

This Saturday, Sutton travel to Lincolnshire to take on second place Spalding Utd. After two home defeats and the end of season close, the lads will be keen to impress the gaffer to be in contention for next season.

Spalding are on a good run at the moment, having been unbeaten in their last 8 games. Spalding sit in 2nd place in the League, seven places above Sutton, so a very tough game will be expected.

Spalding are based in Lincolnshire and were formed in 1921. They are nicknamed the Tulips and play at the Sir Halley Stewart Field. Their honours include United Counties League Premier Division Champions in season 13-14, and League Cup winners in 94-95.

The players on the opposition side to watch out for will be Graham and Clifton, who have made a big impact going forward this season, and have scored a total of 27 goals between them.

Luckily for Sutton, we have shored up our defence in recent weeks as these guys will provide a stern test.

The last time Sutton played Spalding was back in November with a 2-2 draw, with Tague getting an equaliser in the 90th minute. Last season both games home and away were lost by a 1-0 scoreline.

Will they be able to turn things round this Saturday?
