THE PREVIEW: Both these sides have enjoyed unbeaten starts to the league season, and this could well be a glimpse of a play-off game come the end of the season.

Grays won this fixture 2-0 last term, and will be the favourites at Mill Field, but the form of Tom Derry for Town, who has netted three times in three games, could swing this the away sides way.

This promises to be a cracker.

WHAT HE SAYS: Town manager Craig Edwards said: We made eight changes on Tuesday but I don’t know how we lost the game against Aveley because we battered them, especially after I made my substitutions but fair play to them.

We will have a stronger team tomorrow and I expect a tough game. Grays will be one of the teams up there come the end of the season and it wouldn’t surprise me if they were one of the top four come the end.

Having managed at Grays in the past I have a lot of time for the people over there. I like the supporters a lot and we have had some good battles with them. We won 2-0 and lost 2-0 against them last year and those matches could have gone either way. And they beat us in the Ryman League Cup but, had it not been for a terrible refereeing decision, that game would have gone to penalties.

FORM GUIDE: LWDD

TEAM NEWS: Edwards made eight changes for the midweek cup defeat, with only goalkeeper Jack Giddens and defenders Ola Williams and Joe Ellul keeping their places from Saturday. Strrikers Onome Sodje and Tom Derry, inset, and Conor Hubble will return, as will captain Frankie Curley.
