Clanfield face Didcot Town in Flying Press Floodlit Cup Round 2

Clanfield will be hoping to build on their impressive 6-0 victory against Wantage Town reserves when they face Didcot Town in the Flying Press Floodlit Cup on Tuesday.

Saturday's win ended a four match losing streak and Tuesday's cup match gives the Robins an opportunity to build some momentum and put a winning run together.

Their opponents are in the Hellenic Division One East league and, like Clanfield, sit in eighth having won three and lost five of their opening eight matches.

Youth goalkeeper Daniel Savin will make his debut in the absence of Mike Hedges and Charles Steward. Aaron Paparoki returns to the squad after missing Saturday's victory while Jack Ellis will hope for more minutes as he continues his rehabilitation from a knee injury. Mark Norridge and Benji Williams are also both available after missing out at the weekend.

However Adam Smith, who performed well at centre-back at the weekend, will miss out due to work commitments while Simon Oakley remains sidelined due to an ankle injury.

Jamie MacDonogh picked up an early injury after his goal during the weekend's victory and will sit out of Tuesday's match.
