Emley are currently 2nd in the Northern Premier League Division One East following tremendous away wins at Matlock Town and a long haul victory at Ashington on Tuesday and looking to push on in our quest for promotion.

Dunston, who are 4th, have become something of a "bogey" team for Emley, winning the last three between us, they were away though, Emley have a decent record against them at home.

Our home form is good, 8 straight unbeaten with only 1 goal conceded, Tuesday's win at Ashington was our 5th straight win.

Dunston, have had a mixed time of it, losing to bottom club Blyth Spartans in their last outing, they have only won 3 out of their last 10 matches.
