-------------------------------------------------------------
In a special additional preview this weekend, we've sent our reporters up to Edinburgh in Scotland to preview a clash between two sides in Division Two who lie on the fringes of the promotion battle. Edinburgh Wolves lie points adrift of the top 2 whilst chertsey know a win this weekend could see them rise into the promotion zone.
THIS SEASON------------------------------------------------
On their return to Division Two, the Wolves have been inconsistent this season, winning 3 of their 7 games so far, but only able to produce back to back wins once. Those results have left them just two points above the drop zone, although a couple of quick wins will see them back into the promotion hunt.
Having also been relegated from Division One last term, chertsey lie 3 points better off after 3 consecutive wins has finally seen them shake off their poor run of form that hit them during the entrity of last season. They now lie just 2 points behind No Surrenders and AFC Trotters.

The choppers are without striker Ernest Tamba who is injured. Reserve keeper Parker Kearney is available again though.

On paper, this should be a close game. Edinburgh have struggled at home of late whilst the choppers until recently couldn't buy an away win. Edinburgh appear to have the stronger squad on paper and are probably due a win.
PREDICTION: 2-1 Edinburgh Wolves.
