Match Preview
Bulls at full strength Manager Jamie Pitman has a fully-fit squad for Hereford's home clash against Macclesfield. Midfielder Nicky Featherstone is in contention for his first start of the season having returned to the bench for Saturday's 3-0 home defeat to Morecambe following a foot injury, coming on for the final 20 minutes. Striker Yoann Arquin also continues to press for his first start in Bulls colours having impressed from the bench to date and is another option for Pitman. The Bulls boss knows his side need to eradicate their mistakes if they are to replicate their Carling Cup triumph over Brentford and pick up their first points in the league. "We've got to be ruthless in both boxes," Pitman told Press Association Sport. "To take our chances and also stop the ball going into our net. "If we do both sides of it then we'll win more games than we lose." Macclesfield boss Gary Simpson could again be without Waide Fairhurst and Paul Morgan. Striker Fairhurst was forced off after just 42 minutes of the opening-day 1-0 home defeat at the hands of Dagenham following a heavy challenge. He played no part in last Tuesday's shock 2-0 win at Hull in the first round of the Carling Cup and also sat out the 2-0 loss at Crawley on Saturday. skipper Morgan missed the end of last season with a broken arm but is edging closer towards full fitness and may come into contention to face the Bulls. Both Fairhurst and Morgan will be assessed but Colin Daniel and Vinny Mukendi are sidelined through injury.

Match Report
Silkmen run riot Macclesfield gained their first league win of the season with an emphatic 4-0 win over Hereford at Edgar Street. The Silkmen roared into life after the break as they smashed in four goals, with Tony Diagne and Ross Draper bagging one apiece before substitute Ben Tomlinson added two more. Hereford started brightly and Stuart Fleetwood had a strong appeal for a penalty turned down early on. Central defender Michael Townsend also headed over the top while Nicky Featherstone was denied by Jose Veiga. But it was a different story after the break as the visitors took the lead through Diagne's stunning long-rage free kick after 53 minutes. Draper then lobbed the stranded Russell Hoult from distance after 81 minutes before Tomlinson took centre stage. The striker climbed off the bench in the 84th minute and netted two close-range efforts in stoppage time.
