BETVICTOR Isthmian North promotion-chasing Aveley and Tilbury will be looking to bounce back with wins to sustain their play-off positions tomorrow (Saturday, 7 March).

Aveley travel to Soham Town Rangers tomorrow afternoon in BetVictor North action.

Fresh from the FA Trophy exploits coming to an end last weekend at National League side Notts County, the Parkside outfit were held to a goalless draw last time out against Brentwood Town on Monday night.

That extended the unbeaten run in the league to seven games with the Millers in fourth spot heading into tomorrow's game, but manager Keith Rowland will be keen for his side to start picking up maximum points once again after a run of four successive league draws.

Soham head into the game in 13th spot with 33 points from their 27 games and are in a good run of form having picked up 12 of a possible 18 points in their last six games.

However, last time out, they did suffer a 4-1 defeat at the hands of improving Romford.

Tilbury sit in fifth place and make the short trip to manage Mark Harrison's former club Basildon United. But they won't be going to Basildon but to Aveley's Parkside ground for an 11.30pm kick-off as the Bees' ground is unfit for play.

The game at Aveley will be immediately followed by Grays Athletic playing host to Felixstowe & Walton United.

In the BetVictor Premier East Thurrock United travel to Leatherhead hoping to end a run of two successive defeats and breathe new life into their hopes of a play-off spot.
