In the Pitching In Isthmian North Grays welcome Wroxham, whilst New Salamis and Ramsgate are at home in the Velocity Trophy

A win for Grays Athletic in Pitching In Isthmian North could take them as high as second in the table- although it would have to be a comprehensive win, so third is more likely. Athletic, who have only one defeat in their last five, have scored fifteen goals during that run so won't be short of confidence- although the Yachtsmen will be sailing at top speed after their five-one FA Trophy hammering of North Division leaders Lowestoft Town on Saturday. Wroxham don't yet have a league win, but their Trophy form has seen them score nine goals in two matches.

In the Velocity Trophy New Salamis play host to Chertsey Town. The travelling Curfews are without a manager unless there is an appointment today, and are without a win in five; whilst their hosts got back to winning ways after two defeats by putting three goals past Coggeshall Town at the weekend.

Ramsgate, three points clear at the top of Pitching In isthmian South East, play host to Kent neighbours Hythe Town. The Rams are unbeaten in the league but haven't been quite so focused in the Cups, departing both FA Cup and FA Trophy at the first hurdle- but they have already defeated Hythe this season, two-one on August Bank Holiday Monday. The Cannons got back to winning ways against Sittingbourne on Saturday, ending a run of three successive defeats.
