CHERTSEY Town play AFC Totton tonight in the Southern League Premier Division South, and the game is important for both teams, but for contrasting meanings…
For the home side Chertsey, sat 17th, a win today would put them six points clear of the relegation zone and still with a game in hand over current 19th place team, Poole Town, who occupy the nearest spot to safety.
The Stags need to bounce back after their disappointment on Saturday with that 3-1 loss against Wimborne.
This is one of their two games in hand on Merthyr at the top, it’s a nine point gap so Totton need the win tonight.
To give you more of an insight into how both teams’ seasons have been going, here are some brief stats…
Chertsey: 17th out of 22, Played 32, Points 37, Won 11, Drew four, Lost 17, Goals Scored 55 (Joint 7th Best) Goals Conceded 63 (Joint 18th Best in the League) GD -8 (Joint 15th Best in the League)
