I think many would agree that our best performance of the season so far was in front of the BT cameras with our 0-5 drubbing of Hartlepool at their place so being televised again should hold no fears. This will mean no streaming by the club - link Of course, no Danny Wright this time and it is never good when your injury list equates to a decent team. I think the 11 day rest can only be a good thing, CLE will be available and refreshed after his one game suspension and suspect there is a good chance of Wynter, Warren and Nemane being back to play some part but who knows with Moxey and Little? In any case, should be more quality and options for Johnson to pick his side as opposed to a hands up who is fit approach! Halifax are not on a great run of form. Only match played in February was their 2-1 defeat at Barnet on Tuesday so a couple of long journeys for them this week. They did beat Bromley on the road last month balanced by losses at home to Maidenhead and to Southport (FAT) and a couple of draws against Wrexham and Kings Lynn so have the feel of a mid table side. It was a narrow win for us at their place back in November when we were firing on all cylinders but this is a chance to come away with our first double of the season and start a much needed run of form.

The half way point and with the season set to continue, much to the relief of all clubs in contention, a fight to the finish looms with a pretty congested fixture program for all.
Halifax are having a strange season with real mixed bag of performances and results but they will be another side who will be wanting to prove a point against the front runners. Not sure how we will respond to our recent dip in form and results or whether the ten day recuperation time will be beneficial or not but hopefully we will have one or two recovered and ready for the fight. We are due a few goals and that's where we have faltered in the league of late though not for the want of effort with Wealdstone fortunate to get anything last time out. Better decision making and more composure up top will be the order of the day. We have the talent and the method to brush aside any competition in this division when we're on our game so lets hope we are in front of the cameras tomorrow. Pleased we will now have a continuation of our season confirmed so no distractions on that front we just need to continue to be the best for the remaining 22 games though I anticipate we're going to be pushed very hard right to the wire.

Going to be a bit soggy, but think it will be game on.
Really hope Nemane is fit as we have really missed him. Would play Lemonheigh-Evans behind Umerah - unless GJ pulls a new centre-forawrd out of the bag at the last minute.
Hope one of Moxey, Wynter, Warren or Kerr is fit so we can field a proper back four. Lewis and Sherring can shuffle around if necessary.
Feels like a really key game. Not sure if we are Champions quality having had a slight stumble, or on a sure path to the play-offs. Time for another Champions performance.

link - pitch looks good. Team news is going to be interesting. Would prefer CLE behind Umerah as well.

link - teams out, still no Little or Moxey but Wynter back with CLE. Waters and Umerah both start so see out that formation pans out.

Interesting to see if Lemonheigh-Evans or Randell plays wide right. Or possibly Waters wide right with Lemonheigh-Evans in the hole. Any way around, we miss Nemane. Good to see Wynter back. Hope he is match-fit.

Two players in, one out. Andrew’s at left back is not ideal. Poor keeping from MacDonald for the own goal. Well done Whitfield for the penalty and well taken by Hall. Not created enough in the final third but Halifax have had to work hard to stay in it and hope we can push on in the second half.

Awful camera work. Worse than most club streams. You expect better from BT Sports.
