KIDDERMINSTER Harriers are odds-on favourites to clinch promotion from the Nationwide Conference.

But manager Jan Molby insists the title race is far from over despite rivals Rushden & Diamonds suffering a shock 2-0 home defeat against Morecambe last night.

The result enabled Harriers to stay three points clear of big-spending Rushden who have now played a game more than Molby's men.

Kidderminster also have a slightly better goal difference than the Northamptonshire outfit who visit Aggborough for an all-ticket showdown on Saturday.

Molby said: "There's still a lot of pressure on both teams and I don't it's all over by any means. If they get the win on Saturday they will be level on points and the pressure will be back on us again.

"If we win then it opens up a gap, but it will be a very, very difficult match. Every time Rushden play we expect them to win, but when they do drop points it's obviously a great help for us.

"Having last weekend off came at the right time. It's given us a fortnight without having that mental pressure or having to play games before the big one.

"It doesn't matter who you look at it but Saturday is a big game.

"There will be a lot of media interest in the game because a lot of people see it as a title decider, but it wont be because there will still be an awful lot of points to be played for.

"But, of course, it's the one that's caught the imagination. So there will be a tremendous amount of interest, but we welcome that. It's great for the Conference and also for Harriers."

Saturday's sell-out clash is set to attract a crowd of 6,250.

Defender Adie Smith will play after recovering from a head injury while there is a doubt about goalkeeper Tim Clarke who has calf trouble. Definitely out is front-runner Mark Druce.
