Nuneaton Town's title charge continues against Sutton United FC this Saturday.

Fresh from gaining an 11th straight league win in a row last Saturday in a comeback win at a muddy Cradley Town, Nuneaton will be looking for a 12th against midtable opposition.

This might not be as straightforward as it may look on paper though, Sutton United also play on a 4G pitch like Town, and the two sides played out a competitive 2-2 draw in the reverse fixture earlier in the season which could have easily resulted in a loss, Louis Baker's late effort along with Danico Johnson's earlier goal stealing a point and keeping Nuneaton's then unbeaten season intact.

Nuneaton however go into the game 13 points clear of nearest rivals Heather St John's, although the latter have 2 games in hand, and know that 6 wins from the final 8 games will guarantee a first league title for the town since 1999. Nuneaton will be hoping to tick one of those off on Saturday afternoon.

Sutton United are on a decent run of their own, dropping points only to sides in the top 6 since the start of November, a run that has propelled them to 9th in the league.

Can Nuneaton gain a 12th straight league win to maintain their perfect 2025? Can Sutton beat top 6 opposition for the first time this year? Saturday will decide.
