Reclaiming the local bragging rights will be chief among Halstead Town's concerns when they entertain Long Melford in division one.

The game at Rosemary Lane tomorrow will give Halstead a chance to avenge the 4-1 defeat they suffered at the hands of their local rivals at the start of September and boss Mark Benterman is looking to put out a strong side.

He said: “It’s a massive game.

“We didn’t do ourselves any justice at their place and we have to look to put it right tomorrow.

“We will be strong and have five coming back in who were rested on Tuesday (for the 2-1 League Cup win against FC Clacton).

“They are all big players and we’ll have a think before the game about who will fit straight back in.”
