Halifax Town entertain Tamworth at the Shay this afternoon in the Conference National, kickoff is 3pm.

The Shaymen will be looking to make it two wins in a row after they returned from Rushden on Tuesday night with a 1-0 victory courtesy of Stephen Torpey's early goal (Shaymenbet offer 22/1 for Torpey to score in 1-0 win today).

Chris Wilder saw his side take six points off Tamworth last season with a 4-0 home victory and a 2-1 victory at the Lamb but he will be warning his players that they will need to work hard and put in a performance to take the points on offer today.

The Town boss has no suspension worries for the game but will be without a number of key players. Greg Young will be out of action for a month after limping off in the first half on Tuesday night with a hamstring injury.

However Tom Mattthews is likely to make his home debut after impressing in midweek after he returned to the Shay on a month's loan from Coca Cola Championship side Hull City, while Tom Kearney is likely to return after a foot injury.

Halifax Town from Mawson, Matthews, Doughty, Quinn, Roberts, Foster, Thompson, Forrest, Torpey, Killeen, Sugden, Senior, Smeltz, Jacobs, Kearney, Gray.
Tamworth from Bowles, Thomas, Kemp, Weaver, Kendrick, Laight, Harban, Ward, Smith, McGrath, McCallum, Atieno, Burton, Stevenson, Storer, Cooper.
