Ebbsfleet manager Liam Daish’s attentions are firmly centred on the Blue Square Bet South trip to struggling St Albans – fourth from bottom with only one win – on Saturday.

With a FA Cup first round trip to AFC Wimbledon on the horizon, Daish (pictured) is hoping they can extend their unbeaten run of 11 league and cup matches since August.

He said: "We have to look for the same sort of performance we produced against Boreham Wood (in the FA Cup) but every game gives us a different challenge.

"The squad has settled in, all the players know what is expected of them."

Reflecting on the FA Cup draw with AFC Wimbledon, Daish added: ""Wimbledon are going well, their crowds are good and it’s not too far for supporters to travel.

"We know all about them from last season and I’m sure they know a lot about us as well. We will go there as underdogs but with nothing to lose."
