Eastleigh:

The Spitfires got back to winning ways last time out, after beating Ebbsfleet United 1-0 at the Kuflink Stadium.

Scott Quigley pounced on a misplaced pass from the Ebbsfleet ‘keeper, before slotting the ball home into an empty net just after the hour mark, giving the Spitfires a lead that they would not lose in the process.

During the week, academy product Connor Underhill signed his first ever pro deal with the club, and will be hoping to get some more minutes in this evening.

Previous meetings:

The two sides have never met each other before, today will be the first game between the pair.
