  Salford City FC v Clitheroe FC match preview
The Ammies need a victory this weekend vs Clitheroe to keep any slim hopes of the play-offs alive after last weekend's demoralising defeat at Cantilever Park. Here we take a look at the form of both City and Clitheroe over the last six league matches. Clitheroe Clitheroe's form seems to be improving after a recent sticky patch. A hard-fought 3-3 draw away at Wakefield was their last result going into Saturday's game, which followed a 1-1 home draw with Mossley. These successive points were important for Clitheroe, as they followed back-to-back defeats 3-1 at home to Bamber Bridge and 2-0 away at Ossett Albion. 2012 had started on a high for The Blues with a 3-1 home victory against Harrogate Railway Athletic. This came after a disappointing end to 2011 with a 1-0 loss away at Durham City. P6 W1 D2 L3 ... 8 goals scored. Salford City FC The Ammies are still without a win in 2012 after last week's 4-2 away defeat to Warrington Town. This was preceded by a disappointing 2-2 home draw with Bamber Bridge and a visit to Harrogate Railway Athletic which ended in a 2-0 defeat for City. 2012 had started with a 1-1 home draw vs Prescot Cables, however the end of 2011 had given more encouraging signs for Rhodri Giggs's side, with a 3-0 away win at Radcliffe Borough and a 4-1 home victory against Mossley. Here's hoping that the Tangerines can rediscover 2011's form quickly before time and games run out ... P6 W2 D2 L2 ... 12 goals scored. Source: Salford City FC.
