A top-four finish is the target for Wick chairman Dave Usher.
He said: ""We asked the boys to take the same spirit and work-rate from Saturday’s game at Mile Oak into this one, but we wanted to get on the front foot and be a bit more positive in our play.
"We created so many good chances we were unlucky to go behind. Again, our heads didn’t drop and we carried on believing in ourselves and got back on level terms pretty quickly.

"With two games to go now, we want to win them both to give ourselves a fighting chance of finishing fourth."
Baldwin’s troops came from behind on three separate occasions to draw at Mile Oak on Saturday and were behind inside 20 minutes at Oakwood.
Mark Gilbert was the man who got the goal but Wick were level three minutes later when George Cody netted.
