Bromley v Thurrock (kick off, 1pm)

BROMLEY'S injury crisis looks to be easing as they approach the crucial festive period.

Francis Duku and Simon Osborn returned to the starting line-up for last Saturday's fixture at Cambridge City after missing several games.

Another long term absentee, Simon Glover, was on the bench, but Nic McDonnell and Garath McCleary missed that game and remain doubts, as is defender Steve Clark.

The experienced Osborn and captain Duku helped the Lillywhites to end a run of five straight defeats with a 2-1 win over City.

And Bromley will be looking to build on that victory as they aim to keep their play-off ambitions intact following the surprise loss of manager Mark Goldberg.

The Lillywhites face two sides in the lower reaches of the table. They host Thurrock on Boxing Day (kick off 1pm), and three days later Fisher Athletic visit Hayes Lane.

On New Year's Day Bromley travel to Thurrock.
