MACCLESFIELD manager Keith Alexander knows that Harlow Town is a banana skin in waiting for his struggling League Two team.

He said: "They are a big, strong and highly experienced team who are in top form at the moment and they are going to present a really tough challenge."

Their respective form could not contrast more with the Ryman Premier League side winning their last three games and Macclesfield losing their last three.

Harlow's last outing against Canvey Island saw them win 3 - 0 against a team that finished the game with only seven men on the pitch.

Alexander is considering major changes up-front with his strikers unable to score the goals their pattern of play deserves.

Prolific former non-League striker Neil Harvey may get an opportunity ahead of both Francis Green and Martin Gritton.

However, Alexander is bound to bring back Simon Yeo after his recovery from flu with Paul Morgan also hoping to return at the back after a nasty mouth wound.

Harlow have endured a chequered recent history, and actually went out of business in 1991/92 only to be resurrected by an Italian restauranteur.
