The Bulls are back at home on Saturday as they host Southport.

Hereford will be looking to return to winning ways after a 3-0 loss away to Oxford City on Tuesday night, which extended their winless run to five games.

“We were very good for the first 44 minutes, but the red card changed the game, individual mistakes in those moments are killing us currently,” said Paul Caddis.

The Bulls’ last win came in early October, a 2-1 away win over Leamington.

Hereford enter the game on Saturday in 19th on 16 points, with four wins, four draws and seven losses.

Southport have had a poor start to the season as they are currently bottom with 12 points, with three wins, three draws and nine losses.

The Sandgrounders are coming off the back of a huge 2-1 win away to Buxton on Tuesday night, which brought to an end a run of five games without a win.

Neil Danns’ side have only won once at home this season, which came back in August in the second game of the season.

Southport finished in the lower half of the table last season but stayed up comfortably, as they finished in 18th on 53 points, 14 above safety.

The two sides met twice last season, a 4-1 win at Haig Avenue for the Bulls and a 1-1 draw at Edgar Street.

Hereford fans will be hoping to see their side earn all three points on Saturday.
