ROCHFORD Hundred face a tough task against table-topping Diss as they look to bounce back to winning ways in London Two North East tomorrow.

Rochford have slipped to seventh after losing their last two games.

And Hundred’s first team manager Graham Pratt knows the team must improve if they are to secure a shock success of their own this weekend.

“The boys will have to play a great deal better this week against top of the table Diss if they want to come away with a result,” said Pratt.

“Individually we have some very good players but we’re not quite gelling as a team yet.

“It will come though and when it does confidence will increase and we will start winning again.”

Bottom of the table Basildon, who have yet to win this season, host fifth placed Holt this weekend while South Woodham Ferrers, who sit sixth, travel to fourth placed Sudbury.

In Essex One, fifth placed Billericay are at second placed Braintree while seventh placed Canvey Island travel to Bancroft, who are fourth.

Second from bottom Stanford le Hope are at ninth placed Writtle Wanderers and 11th placed Pegasus Palmerians head to a Clacton team three places above them.
