Match Preview

THE MIDLAND FOOTBALL LEAGUE PREMIER DIV'N

SATURDAY 18th NOVEMBER 2023 3.00pm KICK OFF

TIVIDALE v NORTHWICH VICTORIA

This Saturday sees yet another away match when we travel down to West Midlands to visit Tividale FC .
As most of you will remember, they soundly beat us 3- 0 earlier in the season at Wincham Park to gain their first win. However only one more victory has followed in the League and they currently lie 16th with 9 points after 12 matches whilst Vics lie 12th with 13 points after 11.

Tividale F.C. was originally founded as the senior branch of Tividale Hall Youth Club F.C, and after starting in the Handsworth and District League, they joined the West Midlands (Regional) League, Division One in 1966 and won promotion to the Premier League in 1973 and eventually joined the newly formed Midland Football League .
Last season they flirted with relegation before a run of 6 straight wins made them safe, and under the guidance of new Manager Stuart How. they started this season poorly with 5 defeats and a draw in their first 6 league games before beating Vics and are slowly improving.
Vics are still looking for their first away win of the season, having drawn 3 and lost 2 of their matches so far.
