Latics aim to keep the positive momentum going

Date published: 03 March 2023


Latics are one of the National League's in-form teams at present, and they'll be determined to keep their recent impressive run going tomorrow when Boreham Wood head to Boundary Park.

Any lingering fears about possible relegation have all-but disappeared of late as David Unsworth's side have eased themselves comfortably into a lower mid-table 15th spot in the standings.

Latics have definitely turned a significant corner since Christmas, having lost only two of their last 11 league matches.

They head into tomorrow's clash on the back of superb back-to-back away successes at Chesterfield and Barnet in the last week. 

"I feel like the whole club has come together in a very short space of time," said boss Unsworth.

"We are not yet a winning machine, but when we become one the fans will come with us on the journey and we'll start enjoying the game again."

A win tomorrow could lift Latics up another couple of places in the table, but Luke Garrard's Boreham Wood are also in good nick at present.

They are handily placed in eighth in the table, having not been beaten since their last fixture of 2022.

They are unbeaten in 11 games, and have also won their last two.
