Didcot Town return home to face fellow playoff hopefuls Evesham United on Saturday as both sides will be looking to bounce back from disappointing results last time around. Didcot losing 2-0 at Winchester City last Saturday and Evesham suffering a surprising 5-2 home reverse to Cirencester Town.

The previous meeting between the two teams was back in October as the Railwaymen came away from Worcestershire with an impressive 2-0 victory thanks to goals from Stuart Cattell and a debut goal from Felipe Barcelos.

Didcot will be forced into yet another defensive reshuffle as they will be without both of their usual central defenders as captain Adam Learoyd sits out the 2nd of his 3 match ban and he is joined on the naughty step by Stuart Cattell who misses Saturday’s game following his red card at Winchester last weekend.

Also missing from this weekend’s game will be striker Louis Joyce who remains side-lined by injury as well as both Sam Barder and George Reid who are both unavailable. Seth Humphries will face a late fitness test to see if he can be involved, there is some positive news for Didcot however as after 4 months out with injury midfielder Callum McNish returned to competitive football in the week playing 90 minutes for the reserves on Tuesday and is set to be included in Saturday’s match squad.

It promises to be another close and exciting game at the Loop on Saturday so please come down and support the Diddy boys if you can!
