Slough Town travel to Bracknell tomorrow (Saturday) in what is arguably the most important game of the season so far for both clubs.

The Robins currently sit second bottom of the South & West table, six points behind the Rebels but with four games in hand.

Both sides share similar recent form, with two wins in their last six games apiece. Bracknell followed up a 3-2 win at Uxbridge with a 2-0 home victory against high-flying Burnham on January 5. The Robins have however not played a league match since then due to postponements. Meanwhile, the Rebels last played two weeks ago, gaining a point at Gosport thanks to a late Steve Daly goal.

Bracknell recently appointed Byron Walton as their new manager, with former Rebel Steve Hale also leaving Flackwell Heath to assist him, so a tough game is on the cards as the new management team look to make their mark.

Slough have added Thatcham Town's James Suarez to their squad along with Jason Marney and Josiah Hunte ahead of the crucial clash. Slough welcome back Terry Davies (pictured) into the squad. Jermaine Gumbs, Brian Connor and Rommell Gumbs are away on international duty in Anguilla, with manager Mark Betts confident that the squad will still be strong enough for the challenge at Larges Lane.

Please note there will be no supporters' coach for this match. A bus service (191) runs from Slough, or alternatively use the train service from Slough via Reading.
