Ebbsfleet United v Exeter

EBBSFLEET United continue their Blue Square Premier Campaign with a visit to Exeter on Saturday.

It will be the second long trip the Fleet have had to make this week, having come away with a point at Burton Albion on Tuesday night.

Once again boss Liam Daish will not be able to name his first choice line-up, although there are signs the club's injury woes are nearing an end.

Summer signing Neil Barrett was a late substitute at Burton after five week's out with ankle ligament damage.

James Smith is on course for a return to full training in three weeks following a double hernia op, while Mark Ricketts is improving well now that the swelling on his kness has cleared up.

Chukki Eribenne, Warren Goodhind and Danny Slatter all the missed the trip to Burton having faced Kidderminster last Saturday, but new loan signing John Hastings made his debut and will once again be in the squad.

The Fleet's topsy turvy season sees them in 15th position in Blue Square Premier. Exeter are eighth, but only three points ahead.
