Hereford will be looking to return to winning ways after a 2-1 loss to table toppers South Shields on Saturday, which ended their five-game unbeaten run in the league.

“I’m really pleased with the effort from the players, they’re a brilliant football team and it was an overall great game of football for the National League North,” said Paul Caddis.

South Shields are unbeaten in the league and the Bulls can feel positive about the fact that they went toe-to-toe with them.

Hereford enter the game on Tuesday in 14th, with 14 points, having won four, drawn two and lost five.

Telford have had mixed fortunes so far this season as they currently sit in 17th with 12 points, having won three, drawn three and lost five.

The Bucks’ most recent form has been impressive, with back-to-back wins against Darlington and Scarborough, which saw them score 10 goals.

Their emphatic 6-0 win against Darlington in the FA Cup earned them an away trip to Sutton United in the first round.

The 4-1 victory against Scarborough on the weekend was a much-needed one, as they had gone three games without a win.

Kevin Wilkin’s side finished third in the Southern League Premier Division Central last season and were promoted via the play-offs.

Hereford and Telford last met back in the 22/23 season when the Shropshire side were last in the National League North.

There are a number of Bucks’ players that will be familiar faces to the Edgar Street crowd, with Jordan Cranston, Orrin Pendley, Brandon Hall and Ricardo Dinanga all being former players.

The Bulls fans will be hoping to see their side pick up their third home win of the season on Tuesday night.

One to Watch

Remi Walker (TELFORD):

The midfielder has been in fine form so far this season as he has scored six goals in the first 11 league games, including a brace in their most recent game.

Walker came through the academy at Birmingham City and joined Telford in 2023 after he was released, prior to that, he had a loan spell at Alvechurch.

Wilkin will be hoping Walker can continue to cause the opposition problems on Tuesday night.
