Southend Manor have the perfect chance to step up their Schweppes Essex Senior League honours bid tomorrow.

For while Mark Jenkins's third-placed side host Hullbridge at Southchurch Park, the top two are in direct opposition when Ilford entertain Saffron Walden.

After last week's welcome return to form, when they bounced Southend Manor out of the Harry Fisher Memorial Trophy, Basildon United look to improve their miserable League record of just three wins in 15 games when they entertain bottom club Stansted.

Away from the League, Concord Rangers will be favourites to join Basildon, Woodford and Burnham in the Harry Fisher semi-finals when they take on Eton Manor at Thames Road.
