AFC Sudbury Reserves return to action at the Wardale-Williams Stadium, as Danny Laws' side host Team Bury, in the Thurlow Nunn First Division.
Date: Saturday 26th September, 2015
Competition: Thurlow Nunn First Division
Kick-Off: 3pm
Location: Wardale-Williams Stadium, Sudbury
The AFC side will host the Suffolk team who have had a poor run of late, losing their past six games, which sees them sit 15th in the First Division table, one place above Sudbury (16th).
Bury lost 2-1 at home to Diss Town last Saturday, and also had defeats against Dereham Res (4-1 away) Ely City (3-0 at home), St Neots Saints (2-1 away in the Vase), Leiston Res (3-2 at home) and Woodbridge (3-0 away) in the past few weeks.
The Yellows have only played six games so far this season - two at home - and go into Saturday's match following a respectable 1-1 draw away at Woodbridge last weekend.
Charlie Gilbert remains top scorer for the AFC Reserves, and will hope to continue his form, while James Axcell and Ollie Dunlop will look to continue their goal-scoring antics. Wayne Blackman will be away with the first team.

Meanwhile, AFC Sudbury's first team travel to Eastbourne Borough, in the second qualifying round of the FA Cup.
Wins against Ware and Hendon saw them through to meet the Sussex club in this round, with the Yellows three wins away from the first round proper of the FA Cup, a feat last achieved by AFC in 2000.
Eastbourne go into the match following a 2-2 draw at Oxford City in the Vanarama National League South, last weekend.
