Local derby set to take place on Tuesday night (7,45pm) at third attempt
Erith Town make the short trip to Phoenix on Tuesday night (7.45PM) as Darren Anslow’s men look to bound back from Saturday’s defeat to Merstham.
The twice rearranged local derby fell to the weather in January but there are currently no concerns going into Tuesday’s clash in DA7
Phoenix actually sit one place above Erith in the form table with seven points from their last six games but the Sports desperately need to pick up points to help them climb out of the relegation zone.
Anslow will be without Will Grieveson who serves the second of a three match suspension, however, Isaac Thompson returns to the squad for the first time since he was sent off against Ramsgate.
After last season’s playoff triumph, Erith have adjusted well to life in Step Four, currently sitting comfortably in 11th position halfway through the season. Their success has been built on defensive resilience, conceding the fewest goals of any team outside the league’s top four.
Although Erith have consistently performed well against lower-ranked teams, they’ve struggled against higher-placed sides, securing just two points against current top-six opposition.
James Dyer, Harry Taylor, and Ollie Milton have been standout performers for Erith, netting 42 goals between them. Phoenix will need to be at their best to keep this trio quiet.
Tickets are available online or via cash or card at the gate. Matchday programmes are now exclusively online and can be accessed online here on Tuesday morning.
