The William Parker side recorded a good 15-5 win against UC Chichester on Saturday despite missing several key players.

Faced with a similar dilemma for their next game, assistant coach Rob Hamilton believes the tie might not be as straight forward as it looks on paper.

"They stuffed Hellingly out of sight on Saturday which was very unexpected," he said. "Hellingly have beaten us this season so we've got to take due note of that.

"Relegation teams are very dangerous at this stage of the season but as we've only lost one game at home this season and we should really be expecting to win."

Dave Millen and Steve Kimber could return, and Hamilton added that several of the players from the UC Chichester game could keep their places. Kick-off is 3pm.
