Phoenix face Chislehurst Glebe in second game in 48 hours.
Phoenix Sports return to action on Easter Monday (3pm) with momentum on their side as they prepare for a crucial clash against the in-form Chislehurst Glebe.
With five wins from their last six matches, and sitting in sixth position, Phoenix are building a strong case for a late push into the play-off places, provided they can maintain their winning run in their final four matches.
Saturday’s emphatic 5-1 victory over Snodland Town FC was arguably their best win of the season, but the quick turnaround means there’s little time to celebrate.
Just 48 hours later, they face a stern test against a Glebe side also enjoying a rich vein of form.
Glebe may sit 15th in the table, but they carry a significant threat - particularly through the league’s top scorer Jamie Philpot, who has netted an impressive 24 goals this season. He scored twice against Phoenix in the reverse fixture earlier in the season.
Phoenix have responded to the recent setback at Tunbridge Wells that ended their 11-match unbeaten run with two straight wins and Jake Goodman’s side have taken 15 points from their last six matches. They’ve scored freely in the process with four or more goals in games against Rusthall, Hollands & Blair and Snodland.
Team news sees Phoenix still without long-term absentee Harry Smart as he continues his recovery from knee surgery but otherwise report a clean bill of health.
The task is clear for Phoenix: keep winning, and the play-offs remain within reach.
