Folkestone Invicta boss Neil Cugley doesn't want Faversham Town to complete the double over his team this weekend

00:00, 17 February 2016

Folkestone are out for revenge at Faversham on Saturday.

Ray Turner’s side won 2-0 at the Fullicks Stadium in October and are on a four-match winning run at Salters Lane.

Faversham haven’t been beaten on their own patch in almost four months but Invicta boss Neil Cugley is determined to deny them another derby success in Ryman League Division 1 South.

He said: "We haven’t had many poor performances this season but that was a poor one when we lost to them at home.

"They defended well, we never caused them any problems and they’re the only side left now that can do the double over us.

"That’s one thing I’ll say to the players – let’s not let anybody do the double over us this year.

"We’re playing better now than we were then and I’m looking forward to the game.

"We don’t want to go there and get beaten. If we get a draw, it won’t be the end of the world."

Nat Blanks and Matt Newman are injured, while dual-registered Jon Pilbeam is set to play for Ashford United in their FA Vase quarter-final at Salisbury.

Jordan Wright and Ronnie Dolan will both be considered for a start at Faversham.
