DORCHESTER Town will be looking to get their promotion push back on track when they welcome Larkhall Athletic to the Avenue Stadium on Saturday (3pm).

The Magpies suffered a 2-1 defeat away to fellow promotion hopefuls Westbury United last weekend, despite taking the lead through Ethan Taylor.

Glenn Howes' side had previously recorded an impressive 4-0 victory at Bishops Cleeve but have now lost three of their last five Southern League Division One South fixtures.

Dorchester remain firmly in the promotion picture, sitting fourth in the table with 34 points from 16 matches, six points behind leaders Weymouth.

But the club will need to rediscover their early season form which saw them win 10 of their first 11 games to avoid losing anymore ground on their local rivals.

Saturday's home encounter provides an opportunity to return to winning ways with Larkhall struggling in the relegation zone.

kick off at The Avenue Stadium is at 3pm on Saturday, November 14.
