Central Host East Manchester FC

This weekend, East Manchester FC visit Seashell Trust, offering Manchester Central the opportunity to move up the table.

This weekend's visitors, East Manchester FC, currently occupy 13th place in the Manchester Football League Division One having earned just 9 points in 13 games.

Central manager, Chris Tomkinson, will be hoping that last weekend's emphatic 5-1 cup victory over Heyside inspires his side to revitalise their league form to the level which saw the WHites top the table just a few weeks previous.

The visitors have seen two victories so far in their campaign, with a 3-2 win over rock-bottom Wilmslow Albion and three points taken from 12th-placed Hindley Juniors in a 3-1 victory.

However, these two wins came in successive fixtures in mid-October, with East Manchester only managing draws with Bolton United and Tintwistle Athletic since.

East Manchester FC are yet to keep a clean sheet this season, having conceded 43 goals in 13 games.

Despite this, the visitors have managed to net 24 goals this season - just 3 less than Central - failing to score in just two fixtures.

Therefore, the one to watch in this weekend's opposition's side is Ben Fenton, who has tallied 9 goals in just 8 appearances.

However, he is not East Manchester's only attacking threat, as they have seen 9 other names written on the scoresheet so far this season.

Expect a tricky game at Seashell Trust this afternoon, with both sides looking to earn some much-needed points.
