BRIGG TOWN v LINCOLN UNITED AT HAWTHORNS IS VITAL GAME FOR ZEBRAS

Brigg Town Football Club have a very important derby game coming up on Tuesday night (October 7).

The Zebras host Lincoln United at the Hawthorns (7.45pm KO).

Brigg are not having the best of seasons in the Evo-Stik League Division One South and lost 7-2 on their visit to Kidsgrove - another of the lowly teams - yesterday.

Kidsgrove currently prop up the table with 6pts, Market Drayton being just above them on 7pts and Brigg third from bottom with nine.

These three, battling relegation, have all played 11 games.

Lincoln United are 14th in a league of 22 teams, having collected 12 points.

There's a long way to go and plenty of opportunity for Brigg to climb the table.

Lincoln's travelling fans will help swell the gate on Tuesday night.

Brigg will be keen to improve defensively, having conceded more goals - 33 - than any other team in the division.
