We preview our away clash at Stansted.

We haven’t met with Stansted since the 22/23 season, after they were switched across to the Spartan South Midlands Football League for the 23/24 campaign.

A defeat on home soil in December 2022, but a victory here on this ground in August of that year means both sides have won one of the last two meetings, with both games ending 3-1 to the away side.

The Woods

Despite the draw at home to FC Clacton on Wednesday, we still remain extremely close to league leaders Stanway Rovers, who sit four points clear of us having played two more games.

Manager Shane Baptiste will return to the dugout for Saturday’s clash in Stansted, having missed the midweek draw due to being away, with Assistant Manager Dee Safer taking charge of the team.

Our hosts

The Airport Army have struggled in recent weeks, but they did pick up a victory in midweek as they beat Frenford 2-1 on home soil.

Those three points were their only win in their last four league matches, where they have conceded ten goals including a 7-0 defeat to White Ensign, who we dispatched of by six goals to nil.

Match details

This fixture will be played away from home, taking place at Stansted’s Hargrave Park - CM24 8BX - and will kick off at 15:00 BST.

Tickets have been priced at the following.

Adults: £8
