Preview: Rochdale AFC (H)

23 Jul 2024 | Latest News, Match Preview

We return to the Leasing.com Stadium this evening for more Pre Season action as we welcome National League side Rochdale AFC. 

It has been a positive start to Pre-Season for The Silkmen so far, with Robbie Savage’s side remaining unbeaten in their opening three games.

The Silkmen came away from The New Saints on Saturday with a draw as Alex Curran equalised just before half time in what was a very pleasing performance.

Rochdale come into tonight’s game after a draw with Fleetwood Town and will be bidding for a return to the Football League this season.
