Defeat to Barnet on Saturday in front of the BT Sport cameras meant that the Coasters had their first loss in three games.

With a home fixture against Sutton United, Bentley and his side will be hoping they can get back to winning ways and push on up the table.

The squad is in good shape going into Tuesday’s game, with the only injured player being striker Kurt Willoughby.

The Opposition

Name: Sutton United

Form: DWWLW

Nickname: The U’s

Ground: Gander Green Lane

League Position: 21^st 

The U’s have had a shaky start to the National League this season, currently occupying a place in the relegation zone, level on points with Wrexham.

Recently, Sutton have started picking up results – with the side losing just one game from the last five.

Looking to guide them out of trouble is manager, Matt Gray. This season under Gray, the U’s have won six, drawn nine and lost 11. He has been in charge since May this year.

One To Watch

Harry Beautyman

This weeks one to watch is midfielder, Harry Beautyman. 

Beautyman is a player with great quality and he is currently enjoying a good season, despite his side’s struggles.

The U’s midfielder has played in 23 of 24 games this term, making him almost everpresent in the team.

In those games, Beautyman has popped up with nine goals – an impressive tally from midfield in the National League.

The 27-year-old has previously been at EFL clubs Peterborough United, Northampton Town and Stevenage United – the club he left to sign for Sutton.

Head-to-Head

This will be the fifth time the two sides have met – with both sides drawing level on wins over each other.

The game will also be the first meeting between both teams this season – after the original fixture was postponed.
