Fifth placed Marine will aim to make it two wins on the bounce when they welcome Liversedge to the Marine Travel Arena on Saturday.
The Mariners currently sit just inside the play-off places in the Northern Premier League following their 2-0 smash and grab victory at Morpeth Town last weekend.

On the other hand, strugglers Liversedge have won just one of their last six matches and are hoping to climb out of the relegation zone despite not scoring in over half of their league fixtures.
A positive for the West-Yorkshire side is they have only picked up points on their travels this season; losing all nine games they have hosted at Clayborn, but winning four of their eight encounters away from home.
Marine’s top scorer Hayden Campbell (10) will be eyeing up a return to Neil Young’s starting XI after playing less than 10 minutes last Saturday. That was still enough time to score an audacious halfway line goal to seal the three points.
A victory would give the Mariners a big boost in their hopes of claiming a top five finish come the end of the season and establish themselves as a team on the rise.
