City v Hampton & Richmond Borough Match Preview
The Romans take their impressive unbeaten run back to Twerton Park this weekend and they’ll be looking to extend it further when they take on Hampton & Richmond Borough in the Vanarama National League South. Kick off – 3pm!
Jerry Gill’s in-form Romans could have been in danger of taking their foot off the gas after the dramatic win against Torquay but they dominated proceedings in a blustery West Country Derby last Saturday and picked up a valuable point on the road. It’s now the turn of Hampton & Richmond to travel to Twerton Park and they’ll be aiming to snatch the points for themselves as they look to pull even further away from the relegation dogfight.
The Beavers, who finished in the play-offs last season, have yet to hit the same heights in this campaign and currently sit in 16th position. The departure of manager Alan Dowson, captain Josh Casey and top scorer Max Kretzschmar to National League South rivals Woking, left the club with some big gaps to fill and it’s been the job of former Hendon boss Gary McCann to build a squad from scratch. The Romans have already taken on the London club this season, coming away with a 1-0 win thanks to a fine second half effort from Sean Rigg. City didn’t have it all their own way in August though with Hampton spurning numerous chances in front of goal and they’ll be looking for revenge when they travel to the West Country on Saturday.
