Last updated : 08 May 2010 By Dan Buxton

Hardly Athletic will be hoping to end a run of four straight cup defeats when they take on Eaton Park at Fenton Manor tonight.

Hardly have been without a league game since they played Eaton Park in March, when they went down by five goals to three, with Chris Cope, Dan Hallam and Ash Newman all netting.

With Dan Middleton still sidelined with a knee injury, Matt Carter out with a recurrence of ankle trouble and influential goalkeeper Joe Gordon suffering from a hand injury, sustained during his recent charity bike ride to the south of France and back the side picks itself with just six fit players.

Eaton Park top Hardly's league division with 25 points from 10 games whilst they are currently second in the cup group, with three wins from four games

The game kicks off at 7.05pm and the six players chosen to compete this week are:

Chris Cope

Dan Hallam

Ash Newman

Matthew Peart

Andy McEvoy
