Congleton Town will be targeting three points in front of a potentially packed Silk 106.9 Stadium on Sunday.

The North West Counties Football League takes part in the annual Groundhop this weekend, with a variety of kick off times at seven of the league's fixtures allowing groundhoppers and football fanatics the opportunity to watch a wealth of action across three days (Friday to Sunday).

Now in its third year, the Groundhop event has had a positive impact on match attendances in the last two years.

Congleton Town kick off at 11.30am on Sunday at home against Northwich Victoria.

The Bears will be looking to bounce back after losing their last outing 3-0 away to Litherland REMYCA.

A win for Congleton Town would see them leapfrog the visitors in the league table.

Northwich Victoria tweeted in the build up to the match that their coach tickets to Congleton had all sold out.

Gates will open at 9.30am for the match, with groundhoppers, whether on a coach or not, able to gain admittance by ticket at the main gate.

Admission £6, under-16s free.
