Linnets ready for promotion clash

King's Lynn top-scorer Joe Francis hopes to add to his tally against Team Bath

King's Lynn chairman Ken Bobbins has backed the team to strike a decisive blow in the Southern League title race against promotion rivals Team Bath.

The third-placed Linnets entertain the students, who have a one place and one point advantage but have played a game more, on Saturday.

"It's massive, I see no reason why we shouldn't win giving us a nice cushion with four games left, "said Bobbins.

Lynn romped to a 4-0 win when the teams last met in February.

"That result should give Team Bath food for thought. We played them off the park that night and I am confident of a repeat performance," added the Lynn chairman.

Team Bath will go into the match after a 4-3 midweek defeat at fellow promotion chasers Bashley.

However, they still boast the best defensive record in the league and have only failed to score once on their travels.

Lynn have statistics on their side as well. They have not lost at home in the league all season and are the Southern League's top scorers.

Kick-off at The Walks is 1500 BST.
