Preview: Staines look to stop swanning around by ending winless away run

By Andrew Frecklington
Wingate & Finchley will have the opportunity to pull themselves level on points with Billericay at the top of the Bostik Premier tonight, but it is the big clash between fourth and fifth that stands out on paper.
Free-scoring Staines travel to Hendon after their impressive 3-1 win against Lowestoft at the weekend, and the Swans will be looking to break their winless away run in the league this season.
While tough to beat – Johnson Hippolyte's side have picked up three draws from their four away outings – Swans fans will be looking for a much-needed three points on the road as they maintain their push in the play-off places.
For Hendon, the clash gives Gary McCann's men an opportunity to bounce back from their defeat at Folkestone on Saturday, where they threw away a two-goal cushion with the home side scoring three unanswered second-half goals to bag the three points.
Wingate & Finchley will move to 21 points should they see off the challenge of Brightlingsea Regent as they continue the somewhat thankless task of chasing Glenn Tamplin's big-spending Billericay.
After losing their first two games of the season, the Blues have now won their last six, and saw off basement club Worthing 1-0 at the weekend.
For Worthing, it's been a thoroughly miserable start to the campaign with only one point from a possible 27. The Mackerels welcome ninth-placed Kingstonian to Woodside Road.
Elsewhere, Dulwich Hamlet could force their way into the top five should they see off Harrow Borough at Earlsmead Stadium, Harlow face Needham Market  in a battle at the bottom along with Lowestoft and Thurrock, while Tonbridge Angels welcome Dorking Wanderers and Tooting & Mitcham – still without a win – face Folkestone.
