PREVIEW: WHITES V BROMLEY
Two in-form National League sides meet at Crabble this Saturday afternoon.
Andy Hessenthaler’s Dover have won their last three consecutive league matches and are unbeaten in six league games at Crabble.
Neil Smith’s men have won their last four league matches, however their 3-0 win at Havant in their last away match was their first National League victory on the road since a winning 1-0 at Maidstone United on 6th October.
Home fans might recognise a couple of familiar faces when the Ravens take to the field this weekend.
Winger Adam Mekki featured once for Whites in 2015 and Bromley fitness coach Ben May netted 21 goals in 40 games for Athletic during their 2012-13 National League South campaign.
Please note the match will be segregated.
