Sitting 18th in the league table doesn't represent how much of a test for Rusthall this will be- as we have seen first-hand this season in the FA Vase and in the away league fixture, Stansfeld will offer a stern test for the Rustics.

Stansfeld can consider themselves very unlucky this season as they have been close to recording some great results. It took late goals from Whitstable on two occasions to avoid defeat and they also conceded late to Tunbridge Wells last weekend to lose that game. With better fortune, they may not have been in the relegation spots.

Stansfeld will offer a direct and robust approach to their game and with Glen Bain scoring 3 goals in his last 3 appearances, the Rustics will need to be wary of his threat.

Having won the last four games, Rusthall will be looking to continue their great start to 2026 and build a title charge worthy of challenging Whitstable and Larkfield & New Hythe. Charlie Clover has scored in all of Rusthall's games this year and will hope to continue that rich vein of form. Louie Clarke continues to show his attacking threat and has now had a goal involvement in each of his last four games.

Jimmy Anderson will be pleased with the reaction to the blip at Fisher with the boys winning 4 from 4 including two Rocks Derbies.

The Rustics are sitting pretty in the league table- currently 3rd with games in hand over both teams above them. With two semi-final draws to be made, the season is building to be a memorable one.

Can the Rustics get the win they need? There's only one way to find out- BE THERE!

Tickets are priced at £8 for Adults, £5 for Concessions and £2 for U16s (U16s must be accompanied by an adult/concession)
