Preview: Bromley vs. Aldershot Town - prediction, team news, lineups

Sports Mole previews Tuesday's National League clash between Bromley and Aldershot Town, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

With both sides aiming to return to winning ways, Bromley and Aldershot Town will do battle at Hayes Lane on Tuesday.

The visitors sit 20th in the National League after consecutive defeats, albeit without the threat of relegation, while their hosts are battling for a top-10 finish.


Match preview

With 49 points from the opening 28 games of the National League season, Bromley looked to have an outside chance of making a late push for the playoffs, but they have since seen their form take a sharp dip.

Andy Woodman's side have now won just two of their last 10 league outings, while only collecting nine points in that span.

After a 2-0 win away at Eastleigh, the Ravens head into Tuesday having failed to win either of their last two games, firstly playing out a goalless draw at home to Maidenhead United.

Woodman's men then travelled to Boreham Wood last time out and left empty-handed, as Tyrone Marsh and Scott Boden hit goals to condemn them to a 12th league defeat of the campaign.

Having dropped four points behind ninth-placed Boreham Wood as a result of that loss, the Ravens will be aiming for a return to winning ways on Tuesday to boost their chances of a top-10 finish.

They welcome a travelling side who find themselves much further down the division at this stage of the season.

Aldershot Town have had to battle through a mixed season in England's fifth tier, amassing just 10 wins and 37 points from their 39 matches thus far.

Two of those victories came back-to-back in April, as the Shots firstly beat Boreham Wood 2-1, thanks to goals from Mikael Ndjoli and Jacob Berkeley-Agyepong.

They added to that with a 2-0 triumph away at Yeovil Town, with Giles Phillips and Ryan Glover on the scoresheet, but have since been unable to add any further notches to their wins column and head into Tuesday on the back of consecutive defeats.

Following a loss to Dagenham & Redbridge, Mark Molesley's side were beaten 2-1 away at Solihull Moors last time out, leaving them 20th in the National League.

While they do sit comfortably with a 17-point lead over the bottom two with five games remaining, Aldershot may not be entirely pleased with their current position and will be hoping to bounce back to winning ways on Tuesday.

Team News

Bromley's line will again be led by star forward Michael Cheek, who has hit 16 league goals this season, 11 more than anyone else in the squad.

Experienced centre-back Byron Webster being named on the bench on Saturday was somewhat of a surprise, and he is expected to return to the back line alongside Chris Bush.

Liam Trotter should also be given the nod from the outset, with the former Millwall and Bolton Wanderers man bringing quality and experience.

Aldershot welcomed winger Ryan Glover back to action from a suspension last time out, and he will be pushing for a start after coming off the bench in that game.

Centre-backs Giles Phillips and Kodi Lyons-Foster have been relative mainstays throughout the season and should again partner up at the heart of the defence.

Bromley possible starting lineup:
Balcombe; Partington, Bush, Webster, Cawley; Trotter, Arthurs, Bingham; Coulson, Cheek, Al-Hamadi

Aldershot Town possible starting lineup:
Ross; Oxlade-Chamberlain, Phillips, Lyons-Foster, Kinsella; Saunders, Harris, Sylla, Glover; Bettamer, Willard


SM words green background

We say: Bromley 2-1 Aldershot Town

Bromley have been the stronger side over the course of the season, and, with both teams struggling for momentum in equal measures, they may have enough to scrape over the line on home turf.
