Maidstone will face a different challenge in their next match.

Stones, who are without a game tomorrow (Saturday), travel to promotion rivals Bognor Regis on Tuesday night.

While last weekend's opponents Hornchurch are big and direct, Bognor have a reputation as one of the best passing teams in the Ryman League Premier Division.

Stones boss Jay Saunders said: "They're a very good side who have a big pitch down there and they use it well.

"They like to pass the ball and the reports we've had have been very positive.

"It'll be a different test to Hornchurch. They're very direct and it works for them.

"I asked the lads last weekend not to give away free-kicks and corners and told them not to get caught up playing their way because they'd be better at it than us and would probably beat us.

"We're playing more football this season and hopefully it'll be a good game at Bognor."

Zac Attwood (groin) and Frannie Collin (ankle) are expected to feature but Jack Harris and Orlando Smith (both knee) remain sidelined.
