FULL STRENGTH MAN-PONT
League leaders Manchester Pontefract, look likely to field a full strength team for the first time this season when they travel to Wolverhampton ...
New world number 4, Lee Beachill leads the team with the freshly elevated James Willstrop playing at two, ahead of Nick Taylor for the first time.
The unbeaten Marcus Berrett continues at four, while World Open Semi-finalist Vanessa Atkinson makes only her second appearance.
The leaders will be looking to consolidate their position and establish clear daylight between themselves and challengers. With Edgbaston facing a tough trip to Nottingham, who may well also be full strength for the first time, this may be an opportune moment for the Lancashire/Yorkshire axis to clinch a decisive victory in their search for a first ever play off berth.
Wolverhampton, however, will offer tough resistance and could well turn around what was a narrow 3-2 reversal in the corresponding fixture in the first half, in which Lee Beachill scored a memorable 3-2 win in the deciding rubber over Anthony Ricketts.
