Caretaker manager Greg Whild will take charge of his first league game this weekend as Solihull Moors welcome fourth placed Sutton United to Damson Park.
Neither team are in sparkling form with only one win between them in their last four games and both having lost their first round FA Cup ties.
Sean St Ledger is likely to feature for Solihull as the experienced defender plays his first game in front of the Moors faithful while also playing at English football‘s fifth tier for the first time in 14 years.
Sutton could hand debuts to their two new loan signings, winger Tom Bolarinwa as well as AFC Wimbledon midfielder Alfie Egan in an effort to reverse their downturn in form.
In a month that has seen the Moors make their third managerial change of the season, Whild will be hoping to secure a run of results that may lead to him being given the job on a permanent basis.
Whild says he doesn’t know who will get the job on a permanent basis but is positive about the future of the club.
He told BBC West Midlands: “The club is working hard for a big future. I want us to be at the highest level we can. And we now have to take our second-half display against Wycombe into our league games.”
