PREVIEW: WHITES V EBBSFLEET

Dover will be aiming to arrest their recent slump in form when they host Kent rivals Ebbsfleet’s in Tuesday night’s derby.

Chris Kinnear’s men have lost their last four National League matches including a 2-1 home defeat to Barnet on Saturday.

And visitors United will also be looking to bounce back from their own dissapointing weekend.

Daryl McMahon’s side lost 3-1 to Fylde at Stonebridge Road on Saturday, though will arrive at Crabble in confident mood having not tasted defeat on the road this season.

And home fans will recognise some familiar faces when the two teams go head to head later tonight.

Defender Sam Magri and midfielder Dean Rance both played for Athletic before moving across the county to join Fleet, making 86 and 37 appearances respectively.
