BANGOR CITY v RHYL - 1 DAY TO GO.....

By Dave Jones on Oct 24, 08 12:59 PM

RHYL senior coach Allan Bickerstaff admits he is looking forward to his first meeting with Bangor City since he took charge of the Lilywhites.
Bickerstaff has led the Lilies to the top of the Welsh Premier and a nine-match unbeaten league run, but knows tomorrow's trip to Farrar Road represents one of Rhyl's toughest tests yet.
"Bangor are on a great run; they're in a decent position in the league, and we're expecting a big test," said Bickerstaff. "It should be a great game in a great atmosphere and we're really looking forward to it."
Rhyl have kept six consecutive clean sheets and have not conceded a goal in 565 minutes of football.
They have also won on their last seven visits to Farrar Road in all competitions, but tomorrow is another day and the Lilywhites will meet a Bangor side in fine form themselves.
Up until Tuesday night, when they played a vastly inexperienced team against Caersws in the League Cup and lost 6-1, City had gone undefeated in 12 matches.
The all-blues currently lie fourth in the Welsh Premier and victory tomorrow would put them level on points with Rhyl.
Injured midfielder Chris Seargeant and ex-Rhyl defender James Brewerton are doubts for tomorrow's game while news is awaited on Lilywhites striker Matthew Williams after he picked up a calf strain playing for the reserves in midweek.
