Southport & Birkdale head to the scene of last season’s endgame, hoping to boost their chances of finding a winning combination in this year’s relegation battle.
A 25-point win at Leigh on the final day of last season secured Premier Division survival for Chris Cunningham’s men, when nothing else would have done.
This year’s struggle isn’t yet at the “do or die” stage but the skipper knows they need to start winning matches in order to close the 13-point gap to safety.
