Ebbsfleet United boss Daryl McMahon on the trip to Solihull Moors
07:30, 03 October 2017
Ebbsfleet head to the Midlands on Tuesday in search of a third consecutive National League win.
Victories against Boreham Wood and Halifax have lifted Fleet into the top half and now they face a Solihull Moors side just one place off the bottom of the table.
Daryl McMahon's side make the trip full of confidence but the manager knows they can't let their standards drop at Damson Park.
McMahon said: "When you look across the league, I don’t think anyone’s good enough to take anyone lightly from 1 down to 24.
"If you don’t perform, you don’t win, it’s as simple as that. You know you have go and perform, no matter who you’re playing against, top of the table or bottom.
"It’s exactly the same and the results in the division tell you that."
Ebbsfleet will make at least one change to their starting XI after defender Sam Magri joined up with the Malta squad for their World Cup qualifiers against Lithuania (Thursday) and Slovakia (Sunday).
Sean Shields is pushing for a start on the wing after coming off the bench to score both goals against Halifax.
McMahon said: "Shieldsy was in the team and got injured at Chester so he came out of the team because of his injury. Dean Rance came back from his injury, his first game was Eastleigh and then he was left out against Tranmere - but they’re all good players.
"I’ve got 16-19 good players and they all buy into each other in terms of working hard for each other and understanding that ‘it might not be my turn this week but it might be my turn next week’. They all back each other and they’re a great group."
Andy Drury (calf) and Darren McQueen (knee) had to come off on Saturday but both are expected to be involved at Solihull.
