Match Preview | FC Halifax Town (H) | Saturday 21st February

City host FC Halifax Town in the Yorkshire derby at the LNER this weekend, with kick-off set at 3:00 in the Enterprise National League.

The Minstermen will be looking to extend the winning run to 7 games should victory fall in the home side’s favour. Maynard’s side ran out 3-0 winners away to Wealdstone last weekend, with Morgan Williams, Zak Johnson and Dan Batty all getting the goals.

Halifax suffered a shock defeat in midweek to bottom side Gateshead, who won their first game in 16 with a narrow 2-1 victory at the Shay.

These two sides last faced at the end of October when a second-half Ollie Pearce goal secured a point for the Minstermen despite conceding an early goal at the start of the game.
