Lancaster City are in the BetVictor Northern League Premier Division ( 2 leagues higher) and have won 3 and lost 2 of their 5 league games this season. Lancaster come into this match on the back of a 4 - 2 away victory at Gainsborough Trinity on Saturday though they also have a game on Tuesday against FC United of Manchester whilst Vics have the bonus of having had a week off .
Added spice to this fixture is that Vics feature 3 players who have played over 200 league games for Lancaster in their career, namely midfielder Ryan Winder , striker Tom Kilifin and defender Rob Henry, all of whom will be looking to put one over on their old team mates.
