Worthing will look to continue their fine run of form in the National League South that has seen them pick up 30 points out of a possible 36, as they head to Arbour Park to take on a Slough Town side that have won just once in their last 13 league outings.
The Ground
Arbour Park still has that ‘shiny new’ look, having been opened in late 2016. Normally most new builds nowadays are fairly boring affairs, but pleasingly Arbour Park is a little different, mainly down to the smart-looking Main Stand on one side of the pitch.
From the outside, this stand that runs around half the length of the pitch and sits astride the halfway line is particularly eye-catching with a central column flanked by two semi-circular metal facades. The curves continue over the roof, extending over the 250 seats below. This seating area is comprised of eight rows. With no supporting pillars to contend with. The team dugouts are located on each side of the stand rather than the normal in-front position. Behind the seated area, there is a tall glass frontage, which further enhances the overall look.
Opposite the Main Stand is the East Stand. This small covered seated stand is four rows high and runs for around a third of the length of the pitch, on the halfway line. It has a small curved roof. Both ends have small covered terraces that more or less extend the full width of the pitch. They are prefabricated in nature meaning that the terrace steps and retaining back wall are made of metal.
The North End is the home end of the ground and is overlooked from behind by a large HEA office block.
Arbour Park is completed with a set of eight floodlights, four of which run down each side of the ground. There is also a small electronic scoreboard in this corner of the stadium.
