Thoughts From Ben Sadler:
It will be a good competitive game. Didcot are having an impressive season and have a good mix of experience and youth.
We are finally getting a settled side and results have improved. Two defeats in our last 10 league matches is a vast improvement and we hope to continue that form tomorrow.
