The two sides arrive with plenty to prove, and the Non League Premier - Northern contest at the home ground offers a chance to lay down a marker. The hosts have found wins hard to come by, DLLLW across their last five telling the story of a win rate of 16.67%. The visitors have been a steady presence on the road, DDLLW in their last five and a campaign win rate of 45.45%. Goals could be in short supply or plentiful — Bamber Bridge average 1.33 per game to Warrington Town's 2, and that gap may dictate the rhythm of the contest. If you're Arsenal and wanting to win the Premier League, and you take six points off those teams, then you're near-on winning the Premier League.

How the two sides approach the contest strategically will be key. Bamber Bridge will want to control proceedings in front of their own supporters, while Warrington Town will back themselves to cause problems on the break. Anderson can still play proactively from deep, but he will have other technical players around him to lighten the load in possession, and zones to hit rather than always playing to feet.

Game-changers are scattered across both line-ups, and the contest may well be decided by which side's match-winners deliver on the day. How each side deals with the other's danger men — and who takes their chances when they come — will be central to the outcome. Another midfielder is wanted after already signing Andrey Santos and Youri Tielemans, with strengthening the left-hand side of their team also being a priority.

Predictions are tricky when the sides are this evenly matched, and small margins — a moment of quality, a slice of luck — could decide it either way. Expect a tight, competitive affair that could easily end all square at 2-2. With positions in the Non League Premier - Northern table to defend and momentum to chase, neither side can afford to leave anything in the tank. City were met with a hostile atmosphere at Anfield in the wake of their guilty verdict on 114 Premier League financial regulations violations.
