Marine host an in-form Trafford tomorrow (November 2) and hope to extend their incredible league form.
The home side sit third just four points off top of the league table whilst still having two games in hand.
The Marine Travel Arena boasts an impeccable 10-game unbeaten streak across all competitions.
The last home defeat was against Premier League side Tottenham Hotspur in their memorable FA Cup encounter.
Marine assistant manager Alan Morgan is well aware of the challenge ahead.
He said: “Trafford have had a good start.
“They’re a young team with a couple of experienced players like Astley Mulholland who’s a good player.
“So its going to be a hard game for us.”
The previous time the two sides met, Trafford welcomed Marine to Shawe View Stadium with a 2-0 victory back in February 2020.
Ryan Wignall is the Mariners one to watch after scoring a brace in their last league game against City Of Liverpool.
