The Pilgrims appeared dead and buried a few weeks ago but will arrive at the Prestige Group Stadium unbeaten in their last six matches, having won five on the trot away from home. That run has seen Graham Coughlan's side move to within two points of safety, while Boston are just nine points behind Pools with two games in hand. Anthony Limbrick's team, meanwhile, are without a win in eight matches although there were some signs of improvement against Eastleigh and Solihull Moors. Given all the off-field uncertainty following the sudden resignation of chairman Raj Singh last week, Pools can ill-afford to get dragged into a relegation dogfight and know that a win on Saturday will go a long way to securing their National League status. Here's a look at how Pools could line up.
9. Attacking-midfield: Adam Campbell
Has endured a difficult season and his place is beginning to come under threat following the return from injury of Anthony Mancini. Would be a surprise were Pools to thrust the Frenchman in from the start given his injury record. Boston are expected to make themselves difficult to beat and that could suit Campbell, who is more than capable of unlocking the defence despite a difficult campaign to date. Photo: Frank Reid
10. Striker: Mani Dieseruvwe
Ended something of a goal drought in the reverse fixture in September and will be hoping to do the same this time around having not scored in his last four matches. Was a bit unfortunate not to add to his tally of 13 goals this term against Solihull Moors last week and Southampton loanee Ollie Wright was in inspired form in-between the sticks. General play has been good despite doubts over where his future might lie. Photo: Frank Reid
11. Striker: Joe Grey
Hasn't scored since returning from injury but his pace and driving runs have certainly made Pools more of a threat. His partnership with Mani Dieseruvwe last season was a profitable one and the two have worked well together in recent weeks, even if Pools have continued to struggle in front of goal. Like Dieseruvwe, his future is in doubt but his attitude and effort remain faultless. Photo: Frank Reid
