Dover manager Andy Hessenthaler is targeting a win double on the road in a bid to re-ignite his side’s play-off push.

Whites suffered a 2-0 defeat to lowly Worcester City at Crabble on Tuesday night and that left Hessenthaler’s side four points off the play-offs.

It was a morale-crushing defeat for the Whites boss but he’s now focusing on Saturday’s trip to Basingstoke and a game at Bishop’s Stortford on Tuesday night in a bid to get things back on track.

Hessenthaler said: "We’re making it hard for ourselves and we’re coming to the stage where we need to start performing.

"I know we are capable but we’re not producing it on the pitch at the moment.

"We still want to achieve a play-off place and we’ve got 10 games to go. Now we go to Basingstoke and Bishop’s Stortford and we need to win those games.

"That should give us more belief ahead of our home game against Bromley."

Hessenthaler will be hoping his front-line start performing after suffering successive blanks in front of goal.
