Fifth-placed Stamford AFC are in Northern Premier Midlands Division action at third-placed Chasetown, while Spalding United host leaders Ilkeston (3pm).

Peterborough North End are in Thurlow Nunn Division One action at Needham Market Reserves, while Whittlesey Athletic’s push for the play-offs takes them to Great Yarmouth.
