GRAVESEND & Northfleet will be hoping to pick up their first away victory of the Conference season when they travel to high-flying Woking tonight.
The Fleet, who have collected four points from their opening five games, face a difficult task against a team who have picked up maximum points on their home patch this season without conceding a goal.
Assistant boss Phil Handford said: "It's still early days. Until we manage to get our teeth into the season we can't judge how well we're doing but we haven't got anything to fear.
"We had a hiccup on Saturday with a 3-1 home defeat against Southport but we are confident we can bounce back against Woking."
Club manager Andy Ford could recall summer signing Paul Sturgess after suspension but young striker Liam Hatch is definitely missing after picking up a knee injury in the Southport game.Gravesend (from): Wilkerson, Strouts, Burton, Watts, Skinner, Berkley, Jackson, McKimm, Bentley, Owen, Kwashi, Stadhart, Hatch, Wilkins, Sturgess, Turner, Booth.
