Quakers looking for fourth straight win

Preview of tonight's game

Quakers are looking to stretch their unbeaten run to five matches at York’s LNER Stadium tonight.

This will be Quakers’ first ever visit to York’s new ground, and if they win tonight, will go seventh in the table above York.

They have collected ten points from the last four matches, and have kept clean sheets in the last two.

And there’ll be a big following from Darlo cheering the players on -- York advise supporters to buy tickets in advance.
