Match Preview: Didcot Town (A)

Barton Rovers travel to Oxfordshire to face second-placed Didcot Town.

Rovers will be looking to put Saturday's disappointing performance against Hadley behind them as they make the 90-minute journey from Barton-le-Clay to Didcot.

The Opposition

Didcot Town currently sit second in the league table after 12 matches, having recorded eight wins, one draw and three defeats.

The hosts have enjoyed a strong start to the campaign and will be looking to continue their push towards the top of the table.

One To Watch - Owen James

Didcot Town's Owen James has been in exceptional goalscoring form this season, currently leading the league's scoring charts with 12 goals in 12 appearances.

The forward has already registered two hat-tricks and two braces this campaign, establishing himself as one of the division's most dangerous attacking threats.

James also found the net in the reverse fixture at the Winton Haulage Stadium on Tuesday 15th September and will undoubtedly be a player Rovers must keep a close eye on.
