The Rebels will look to make full use of their game-in-hand to jump into the play-off places tonight at Twerton Park as they take on a Bath City side who are winless in their last four matches in all competitions.
The Ground
Twerton Park has been the home of Bath City since 1932 and has a physical capacity of 8,840, of which 1,006 are seats, making it the 10th largest football stadium currently in non-League football.
On one side are two seated covered stands. The oldest of these is the Main Stand. It has a raised covered seating area, which means that spectators have to climb a small set of stairs to enter it. It has a steeply angled roof which points sharply downwards, with windshields to each side and a number of supporting pillars across the front. Below is a small uncovered terrace area, in front of which are the team dugouts. Beside the Main Stand is a smaller more modern structure, which is all seated, covered and has a couple of supporting pillars.
On the other side off the ground, is a rather old but quaint-looking covered terrace that runs the full length of the pitch. At one end is large steep open terrace that is known as the Bristol End. There is a noticeable slope to the pitch that descends from this area down to the other end of the ground. The ground is completed by a set of four traditional floodlights in each corner of the stadium.

There is a car park at the ground which holds 150 cars, otherwise street parking.
