The Reds go into the fixture having gained four of a possible six points over the Christmas period, most recently facing Bath City on Thursday:

After a goalless first half, Ollie Pearce fired a free-kick on the edge of the area straight into the Bath wall, but the ball rebounded back to the striker who shot home to put Worthing 1-0 up 10 minutes into the second period.

The lead would only last three minutes though, before Bath debutant Sonny Cox scored a brace to turn the game on its head with 25 left on the clock.

With Worthing looking likely to receive only their second away league loss of the season, substitute Ollie Starkey equalised deep into injury time to rescue a deserved point on the road and ensure the Reds enter the new year in the playoff places.

Form

Starkey’s last-minute equaliser saw Worthing climb to seventh in the playoff places, level on points with Eastbourne Borough and St Albans City in sixth and fifth respectively.

Meanwhile, hosts Hampton & Richmond Borough currently sit out of the bottom four by two places on goal difference, but have played two games less than Cheshunt who occupy the final relegation spot.

Recent meetings

The two sides last met just six days ago on Boxing Day:

Worthing welcomed Hampton & Richmond to the Crucial Environmental Stadium and went a goal up inside the first minute through Ibby Akanbi, but two goals in the space of four minutes from Hampton striker Liam Vincent turned the game on its head in the sixth.

Callum Kealy equalised for the Reds three minutes into the second period, before Akanbi got his second and Worthing’s third in the 66th.

Vincent converted a penalty in the 81st minute to make the score 3-3, but with the game looking likely to be ending a stalemate, Ollie Pearce fired home just before injury time to settle the clash in Worthing’s favour.

Team News

James Beresford, Moe Shubbar and Conrad Honore all missed out on the last two fixtures through illness but boss Adam Hinshelwood will be hoping to have them available for the trip to the Beveree Stadium on New Year’s Day.

Worn both shirts
