Tilbury have the chance for revenge on Yeading tomorrow in a Ryman First encounter.

Dockers were knocked out of this season's FA Cup at the preliminary round stage by Yeading, whose victory back in September was the beginning of a tremendous run of form that continues to the present day with just the one league defeat.

But Tilbury too have proved better than many expected and their midweek 1-0 success at bottom-of-the-table Hertford moved them up to seventh place.

Recent capture from Hitchin, Louie Evans, scored the late winner.

Tilbury's form is in marked contrast to neighbours Aveley and East Thurrock, who occupy positions in the bottom six.
