Bracknell Town – L W L L W

The Martyrs are currently sitting 3rd in the League table, whereas Bracknell currently sit just five places below in 8th , part of the pack chasing those playoff places.


Previous Result

This is the first meeting of the two sides this season, due to a fixture rearrangement thanks to both teams FA Cup matches. However, Bracknell did the double over the Martyrs last season, in their impressive campaign that saw them narrowly lost to Truro City in the play-off final.
