PREVIEW: WHITES V BOREHAM WOOD

Dover will be looking to bounce back to winning ways in the National League on Tuesday evening.

Having been two goals ahead with twenty minutes remaining on Saturday, Andy Hessenthaler’s men lost 3-2 at Hartlepool.

However other results mean Dover are still four points ahead of the relegation zone.

Boreham Wood, four points ahead of Athletic in 17th on the league ladder, have an impressive record at Crabble and have won four of their last six matches at Whites’ home.

Luke Garrard’s men recently ended their own recent poor record on the road.

Wood won 2-0 at Bromley earlier this month to end a 12-match winless streak away from home, started after a 4-0 win at Sutton United back in September.

Home fans might recognise a couple of familiar faces when Wood arrive at Crabble.

Defenders Femi Ilesanmi and Manny Parry were with Athletic last season.  Both players featured in 45 matches each for Dover, with Parry scoring five times and Ilesanmi finding the net twice.
