Alcester sit fourth in the table, 15 points behind the Robins with five games in-hand, and returned to winning ways with a 3-1 victory against Littleton in their last fixture.

Robins joint manager, Clive Seeley, said: “We are expecting a tough game.”




Entrance is £3 for adults and £2 for concessions while under-16’s go free.

Knowle’s clash with Alcester takes place on Saturday, February 24 with kick-off at 3pm at Stratford Road.
