PREVIEW: Deeping seek to bounce back from shock defeat in derby battle at Yaxley,

Deeping are at Yaxley FC for a game between two teams expected to challenge for the title.

But Goode’s men received a jolt on Saturday (August 12) when losing at early-season surprise package Wellingborough Whitworth.

“We didn’t play well on Saturday,” Goode admitted. “But if we beat Yaxley we won’t be far away from the target we set ourselves for the first few matches.

“We won’t be panicking after one defeat. I’m expecting a much better performance at Yaxley.”

Deeping have three points from their first two matches. Yaxley drew 0-0 in their opening game of the season at Leicester Nirvana last weekend.

Wisbech Town are also in Premier Division action tonight at home to Sleaford.

Current top-flight leaders Holbeach United host Peterborough Northern Star tomorrow (August 16). Star drew 1-1 at Harborough at the weekend thanks to an equaliser from the penalty spot from summer signing Zak Munton.

Spalding United (v Corby) and Stamford AFC (v Carlton) play their first home games in Division One South of the Evo Stik Northern Premier League tonight.

Peterborough Sports are at Lincoln United tomorrow.

There are a couple of big Peterborough Premier Division matches tonight as leaders Moulton Harrox entertain unbeaten Leverington and title fancies Netherton United travel to Sawtry, a team who won 10-1 at the weekend to make it three wins in three matches.
