Preview: Hereford vs Basingstoke Town

Ben Chilman previews tomorrow's game:


It's back to reality for the Bulls tomorrow as they welcome Basingstoke Town to Edgar Street in the Evo-Stik Southern Premier Division fixture.  


Hereford have of course been on a high with the ongoing FA Cup run gaining much media coverage along the way. Pete Beadle's side managed to gain a replay last weekend against League One Fleetwood Town, with Calvin Dinsley's strike voted the third best goal of the FA Cup second round in a recent BBC poll.


The Cod Army will face the Bulls at Edgar Street next Thursday, and whether this impacts Beadle's team selection this weekend remains to be seen.


Mike McGrath and Tyrone Duffus remain sidelined with injuries, but Cameron Pring and Elliot Richards will be available after being cup-tied in recent games.


Basingstoke Town are 17th in the league with manager Terry Brown at the helm. Last time out the Dragons drew 3-3 with high flying Weymouth in an entertaining clash at the Camrose. 


The youthful side have had a quiet run of fixture which has meant that the squad has not suffered too badly with injury, but they now face six games before Christmas.
