Nelson welcome Blackpool Mechanics to Victoria Park tonight, hoping to maintain their 100% winning start in the league.

They opened with a 1-1 draw at last season's champions Stand Athletic, although with the home side's major changes in personnel it was hard to establish how good a result that was.
Next up they came away from Darwen with an excellent 2-1 victory, but then mustered up just a solitary point from their first two home games.
They surprisingly lost 3-2 to Castleton Gabriels, and then played out a goalless draw against Holker Old Boys.
Mechanics currently lie tenth in the table, with five points from their four games, although with the way the season has started due to the big differences in games played between the teams, it's hard to assess what sort of threat Mechanics will pose throughout the season.
They certainly will not be underestimated tonight though, and John Bailey will most definitely have his troops focused on trying to secure another three points to close the gap on surprise early season pacesetters Padiham.
