Kempston ready

Arlesey‘s current run of form is rather precarious. The league’s basement side have only taken one point from their previous six league games – a one all draw against Chalfont. Their last four defeats have all been by a single goal.

Kempston’s late win against Ashford Town last time out has lifted a weight from the club, after going a month without a positive result. Jake Newman’s goal drought seemed to coincide with Rovers downturn in fortune, so it was quite fitting that he was the man to net the winner against Ashford. He will be unavailable for this fixture after picking up his fifth yellow card of the season for leaping the fence to celebrate with Rovers’ young fans.

Grant Fryer will be looking to get back into the fold after his enforced absence due to concussion for the last few games. Luke Heneghan is also looking to return to first team action. Jordan Lee had a solid debut against Ashford and will seek to make the left back spot his own, while Josh Crawley has two goals and an assist in his two appearances for Rovers since re-joining the club earlier in the month.
