On the other hand, Amesbury Town are yet to kick a ball in 2025 and will hope the fresh start brings a change in fortunes. Their recent form (DLWLWDLWLL) highlights inconsistency, with flashes of promise undone by a string of defeats. Facing the league leaders is a tough way to return to action, but they’ll be determined to perform strongly on home soil.
