CHORLEY are back in National League North action this Tuesday, hosting Marine AFC for the Magpies’ final game of 2025.
Bobby Grant’s side come into this game in good form, and Andy Preece’s Chorley will have to be at their best in midweek. The Mariners beat Southport 4-2 on Boxing Day and are unbeaten in their last three.
Last Time Out
Danny Ormerod came back to haunt the Magpies at Mill Farm, scoring the only goal as AFC Fylde came out victorious on Boxing Day.
Opposition Focus
The Mariners currently sit eighth in National League North, with 33 points from 24 games - four better off than the Magpies having played a game less.
Their last game in the league was a comprehensive 4-2 home win against Southport.
Marine are lead by their manager Bobby Grant..
Their squad includes Offrande Zanzala, who recently signed for the club following his departure from fellow National League North side, Chester.
Head-to-Head
Our last outing against Marine was a 0-0 draw at the Grant Store Victory Park Stadium back in April. Previous to that in 2024/25, Chorley came out on top with a 3-1 Isuzu FA Trophy win in November 2024.
