Skipton face another big game when they go head to head with promotion rivals York Railway Institute. Their opponents suffered a shock reversal last time out and RI will be wondering just how they will perform on the rebound.
"If they lose, then promotion will be virtually impossible for them," said Skipton's Chris Windle. However, Skipton will be acutely aware that they have already been beaten by RI, who came to Sandylands for the first game of the season and went home 22-12 victors.
Skipton have three men out injured. Flanker Matt Jones has pulled a hamstring, winger Anthony Hill has a broken collarbone and prop Chris Howarth's knee ligament injury is still keeping him out of action. They do welcome Ian Scrivin back to the bench.
Travelling supporters should take the B1224 into Acomb from the York ring road. After two kilometres turn right by a Mormon Church into New Lane, where the ground is situated.
Skipton: Smithson, Beech, Oldfield, Porter, Lacy, Howson, Brown, Birks, Hayes, N King, Jenkinson, Winthrop, Davidson, R King, McDuff. Replacements: Philip, Wilson, Scrivin
