Ebbsfleet will climb into the National League play-offs if they win at FC Halifax on Tuesday night.

Fleet haven't been in the top seven since August but their renaissance under manager Garry Hill has kept their promotion dream alive.

Victory at Maidstone on Saturday was their third in a row and it's now all to play for in the final month of the season.

Hill said: "We have to approach each fence the way we see it and hopefully get a result.

"No game is easy in this league and we found that out on Saturday. We have to keep doing our jobs properly.

"We've got a position now where it's given us a bit of encouragement, there's no doubt about that.

"We've come a long way this season since the time I took charge - and that's not down to me and Ian Hendon.

"It's nice to take the accolades as a manager, working as a pair with an assistant but the playing squad, the supporters and the football club are working hard and digging in and being strong together.

"There's not been any signs of weakness shown. We keep going to work the right way, keep trying to get results for the football club and I'm very encouraged.

"I enjoy it when I see the players and supporters happy but we all know what football's like.

"In respect of cutting our numbers down at the club in the squad, we are thin on numbers but we seem to be able to manage games and formations and the players are getting results for the football club."

Andy Drury returns to the Fleet squad at Halifax after serving a three-match suspension.

A draw would take Hill's side above Gateshead while three points in Yorkshire would see them also leapfrog Eastleigh, who occupy the final play-off place.
