West found themselves 3-1 down at half time last Sunday on a cold day at Cheshire FA HQ but second half goals from Leigh McFadyen, Nat Callaghan and Chaneece Reeves saw West come back to win 4-3 from their biggest ever deficit. That made it nine wins from the last 11 games for West stretching back to the beginning of September.

West head into Sunday in 4th, 13 points behind the leaders but with four games in hand.
