Stockton Town will quickly look to put Saturday’s defeat behind them with a lengthy trip to Quorn.
Stockton were left frustrated with their 1-0 loss to Curzon Ashton on Saturday, where the Anchors failed to recover from a first-half header.
Stephen Thomson is expected back in the lineup following his three-game suspension, which boosts the Anchors front-line further after the returns of Jake Petitjean and Josh Scott on Saturday.
Aaron Brown could also return to action this evening after time away with injury.
Quorn are in the midst of their first season in the NPL Premier Division, following a lateral switch from the Southern Premier Division Central.
Despite a slow start, including heavy defeats at home to Cleethorpes Town and Whitby Town, October saw a drastic change in form, with the Methodists unbeaten in their last seven league games – with four wins in that time.
That form holds Ryan Beswick’s side in a comfortable 13th place, as they continue to adjust to life in a new league.
Striker Billy Kee is without doubt the man to watch for Quorn, the 35-year-old is an EFL veteran, having a solid stint with Burton Albion followed by a legendary time with Accrington Stanley, scoring 68 times in 174 appearances – winning League Two Player of the Season in 2018.
Kee’s impact with Accrington was rewarded with the number 29 being retired by the club, never to be worn again.
Quorn’s top scorer this season, however, is Notts County loanee Jesse Friend, who has an incredible nine goals in just 15 appearances since joining in late August.
Looking ahead to the fixture following Saturday’s defeat, Assistant Manager JD Briggs stated: “It’s a long trip for a Tuesday, that’ll be a factor… it’s a healthy looking squad against the on-form team, but it’s the sort of game we want to get something out of.”
