Hebburn's winning spree was extended to six games at the weekend, as dangerous duo Joe Walton and Amar Purewal struck in the first half against Bridlington Town.

The Hornets' squad looks in a good position as on-loan Middlesbrough winger Nathan Simpson made his senior debut, while Liam Henderson came off the bench to further his recovery.

Daniel Moore's side remain in fourth spot but are now eight points inside the play-offs, and just one win away from second.

Brighouse Town sit ninth in the Pitching In Northern Premier League East Division after a 1-1 draw with Lincoln United on Saturday.

Mohammad Qasim, who recently returned to Vill Powell's outfit, got on the scoresheet however they conceded on the hour.

Another player who could provide a threat to the Hebbrurn defence is Myron Gibbons, having scored three in his last four games.

PRE-MATCH THOUGHTS

"Brighouse will be a tough game," said assistant manager Mark Hudson.

"We know all about Vill's side, they're young and hungry - last year they had a great run in the second half of the season and just fell short of the play-offs.

"They've started slow this year but Vill will have them up for it - it's another home game for us to try and get another three points."

LAST MEETING

Daniel Moore's first league game in charge resulted in a thrilling 3-1 away win against Brighouse.

Bobby Pointon scored the opener for the hosts midway through the second half, but Sean Reid tied proceedings on 74 minutes.

In a manic eight minutes, Liam Murray and Olly Martin also found the net to complete The Hornets' comeback.
