Not only do the FA Women’s National League Northern Premier top two clash this Sunday but third plays fourth in a what is huge day in the title race.

With seven games to go each, unbeaten Nottingham Forest lead Wolverhampton Wanderers by three points in the Northern Premier title race. Burnley are a further point back and three in front of visitors Stoke City, with the Clarets having a game in hand on all others in the top four. Mid-table Liverpool Feds host Hull City in the other game, with the visitors looking to move further clear of the drop zone.

Ipswich Town will knock Hashtag United off the top of the Southern Premier if they win but they do play host to third-placed Exeter City. Oxford United sit two points behind the Grecians as they play Plymouth Argyle, who are a similar measure outside the relegation zone. Watford also trail Oxford by a couple of points and go to MK Dons, who only have a single point from 16 matches.

Middlesbrough will go level with Division 1 North leaders Cheadle Town should they win at basement side Fylde, Chorley are three points behind Boro and hosting mid-table Durham Cestria.

In Division 1 South East, Queens Park Rangers entertain London Bees whom they are three points short of but from two fewer fixtures.

Bristol Rovers are the only side in the Division 1 South West top five in action as they head to Bournemouth Sports, Abingdon United play Portishead with one just above the dotted line the latter beneath it, while bottom side Southampton Women go up against mid-table Keynsham Town.
