Join us this Saturday as Eastbourne Town looks to extend their recent winning streak when we host Phoenix Sports at The Saffrons. With the season drawing to a close, the Town aim to secure their third victory in five games, following a thrilling 2-0 triumph over Lancing. Town can also relegate our visitors this weekend so a battling Phoenix Sports it will be, as they look to avoid the drop.
Oliver Davies and James Ding were the heroes in our last outing, guiding us to a crucial away win against Lancing and solidifying our position in the mid-table. As we reflect on our first season post-promotion, ending on a high note remains our priority.
Phoenix Sports has faced challenges recently, managing only one win in their last six matches. Despite this, they showed resilience with a surprising 2-1 victory over Sevenoaks Town. Jamarie Brissett and Cameron Andrews found the net. Currently, Phoenix sit 19th in the league, occupying the final relegation spot and a victory for Town will send them down.
In our previous encounter in August, Eastbourne claimed a 2-0 victory over Phoenix, courtesy of James Ding’s brace. As both teams prepare for this clash, expect a competitive match with everything to play for.
Kickoff is at 3pm at The Saffrons. Let’s come together and support our team as we look forward to another exciting afternoon of football.
