After three consecutive defeats, Hitchin travel to Hednesford Town, the team they beat 2-1 on the opening day of the season.
Team News: Chris McMenamin should return to the squad, and James Kidd is now available for selection. Otherwise, it's same again for Hitchin.
Current form: Hednesford were beaten for the first time since early December in midweek. They lost 2-0 at Gloucester City. At home, ninth placed Hednesford have lost just three times all season. Before the Gloucester defeat, the Pitmen were unbeaten in seven. Hitchin's form is worrying – they have lost their last three games and four of the last six.
Last six: Hednesford: L, W, W, D, D, W Hitchin: L, L, L, W, L, W
Comment: Darren Salton said that after Hitchin's 4-1 defeat at Dunstable: "Dunstable deserved their win - we just didn't compete, and Darren Sarll completely ran the show for them. We have to take a good look at ourselves after this game."
