Andy Hessenthaler’s squad will be aiming to bounce back quickly from the disappointment of Tuesday’s defeat at Cheshunt when they host Worthing at Crabble on Saturday (3pm).

Whites lost 2-0 in Hertfordshire while the Sussex visitors arrive in Kent on the back of a 6-0 home defeat against table-topping Ebbsfleet United on Tuesday.
