Bexhill manager Ryan Light said: “I’m sure we’ll dust ourselves down, go again next Saturday and be back to how we have been.”

Bexhill are sixth in the table with 28 points from 17 games. They drew 1-1 away to 12th-placed St Francis in August’s reverse fixture.

Kyle Holden, Curtis Beale and Chris Rea are expected to return for tomorrow’s match, but Liam Foster is unavailable. Kick-off at The Polegrove is 3pm.
