DARWEN will be hoping to win three games in a row for the first time this season when they travel to Leek CSOB.

Having beaten Chadderton and Ashton Town in their last two outings, manager Dennis Hill is eying victory at the Staffordshire club.

“Leek are usually a decent team at home but this is a chance for us to win three in a row,” said Hill. “The last couple of victories have really boosted the lads’ confidence, especially after last week where we came from 2-0 down to win.”

Darwen are without the suspended Martin Parker while Lee McAllister is struggling with injury.
