Hastings, who were knocked out of the Buildbase FA Trophy following a 4-3 defeat to Ashford Town (Middx) on Saturday, will entertain Hassocks in round two of the Parafix Sussex Senior Challenge Cup.

Although the county competition isn’t top of Hastings’ list of priorities, tonight’s match offers Chris Agutter’s side an opportunity to get a win on the board after losing three and drawing one of their last four contests in all competitions.
