Steve Jupp, BA11's Club Historian, previews the Hillsiders' visit to BA11.
Badgers Hill stages a first ever visit from Malvern Town on Saturday as the Robins look to bounce back from that disappointing defeat at Mousehole.
While Danny Greaves' squad continue to wrestle with inconsistent form on the road, it is at home where they have excelled with an unbeaten run in the league which now stretches to an impressive seventeen games.
They enjoyed one of their better trips at Malvern back in November when a Sam Meakes brace and one from Sam Teale secured a 3-1 success and a similar outcome on Saturday would earn their second double of the campaign.
The Hillsiders, back in the Southern League after a fourteen year absence, currently lie in thirteenth place after a 3-0 victory over bottom side Exmouth last weekend.
Saturday will be a first away fixture for them since a 2-1 defeat at Cribbs on New Year's Day and, of their nine games (fewest in the division) away from their Langland Stadium base, they've won just two.
Supporters will be heartened by the news that Jon Davies and Pierce Mitchell, absentees from the Mousehole adventure, will both be available for selection as the Robins endeavour to put pressure on leading pair Wimborne and Cribbs.

That's great news to have 'The 'Bruiser' and 'The 'Wizard ' back for Saturday. and...a new
left wingback too?
Malvern ( a Worcestershire town , a similar size to Frome) are a much improved outfit compared to the team we beat 3-1 earlier in the season, so this is going to be a difficult game.
Can anyone explain to me what's happened to our match videos? There's a really good video of our game at Mousehole on 'their' website. They seem a lovely little club. - very much like ours..
I foresee our usual 450 - 500 die hard regulars at 'The Hill' and it would be nice to have a very positive performance from the boys, I ha…
