If you're after some live football action tonight, Ashton United make the trip to Atherton Collieries in the NPL Premier Division.

Michael Clegg's side enter the game having secured a point on the road at Nantwich Town last weekend. However, it could have been so much better for the Robins who took a two-goal lead in the first half, but the Dabbers responded in the second 45 with two of their own to take a share of the points.

Ashton are currently 18th in the table whilst Atherton - who enjoyed great success during Clegg's reign in charge - are 12th and were last in league action on 22nd January, drawing 1-1 with Stafford Rangers.
