Ebbsfleet v Salisbury

Ebbsfleet welcome Salisbury City to Stonebridge Road on Sunday in one of the few games in the Blue Square Premier that doesn't have a bearing on the relegation and play-off places.

Both clubs have secured their league safety and will play out their season hoping for a win but with one eye on the future.

Salisbury will welcome a new board for the coming campaign after the club directors resigned while Fleet boss Liam Daish is set to begin contract negotiations with chairman John Moules after being given emphatic backing by the club's internet-based owners.

Daish will have to reshuffle his squad for the match however, with a number of players hit with injury. James Smith, Peter Hawkins and Darius Charles will all undergo late fitness tests but Jamie Stevens, Dean Pooley, Michael Gash and Derek Duncan will have to make do with watching the game from the dugout.

Salisbury boss Nick Holmes could include injury-plagued midfielder Rob Sinclair after he made the bench last weekend while Jon Bass, Danny Webb and Sam Pearce will all feature after recovering from their respective knocks.

Salisbury City coach Tommy Widdrington told BBC Wiltshire: "Nobody likes to finish the season on a downer. There's three points to play for and we want to finish as high as we can.

"The last game you play is printed on everybody's mind so if we come back with three points there will be a good feeling around the football club."
