Concord are set to make the trip to St Albans City and will be bidding to end their three-match winless run.

In the Isthmian Premier League, East Thurrock United and Bowers & Pitsea will go head-to-head in an exciting local derby at Rookery Hill.

Rocks go into the contest on the back of two consecutive losses, while Bowers are yet to suffer defeat since romping home to the Isthmian North title last term.

In the Isthmian North, neighbours Hullbridge Sports and Canvey Island will do battle at the Ryan’s Heating Stadium.

Darren Manning’s Sports grabbed their first ever point in the fourth tier of non-league football at Aveley last time out.

Great Wakering Rovers and Basildon United are on the road as they visit Coggeshall Town and Grays Athletic respectively.
