PREVIEW: EASTLEIGH V WHITES

Two in-form sides go up against eachother at the Silverlake Stadium this Saturday.

Whites’ travel to Hampshire aiming for a third consecutive National League win, while the Spitfires will be looking to extend their unbeaten run to seven matches.

Boss Andy Hessenthaler’s 150th match in charge of Athletic coincides with a first return to Eastleigh since rejoining Dover in October.

And Whites’ gaffer will be encouraged by his opponents recent home form.

Eastleigh manager Ben Strevens has yet to taste victory in four matches in charge at the Silverlake Stadium.
