MATCH PREVIEW | Chester vs AFC Telford
The Blues kick off 2023 with their first home game for almost a month as basement side AFC Telford visit CH1.
It ended all square between the two sides on Boxing Day and, despite the Blues being held to just a point, they stretched their away league unbeaten record to an excellent ten games. It’s also four clean sheets in the last five league games for Calum McIntyre’s men.
Left-back Alex Brown made his debut and looked solid, as players such as Liam Edwards and Kevin Roberts continued their recovery from the illness which swept through the camp before Christmas – both completing 90 minutes at New Bucks Head in front of a massive away following.
Kick off on Sunday is 3pm.
