In their final away fixture of the month, Ilkeston embark on their travels to face Bury at Gigg Lane in Northern Premier League Premier Division action.
Last time out, the Robins snapped a run of three straight league defeats, as they earned a hard-fought point at Ashton United, with Ash Hunter getting on the scoresheet.
There were plenty of positives to take from the performance which can be brought into the clash against Saturday’s hosts, who were heavily fancied as challengers at the top end of the division.
The Shakers have had a mixed start to the season, picking up 10 points from a possible 18;
However, they were defeated by Lancaster City at Gigg Lane on Tuesday night and will be searching for a response on their home patch, in front of what is expected to be a large crowd.
This fixture will be the first meeting between the two sides, who have never met.
Terry Hawkridge could be in line to make his debut, having put pen to paper with the Robins on Friday afternoon.
As always, thank you for your amazing support, and we look forward to seeing as many of you make the trip up as possible.
Up the Robins!
