John Keister looks likely to miss the Tooting game

Tooting and Mitcham v Dover Athletic

Runaway Ryman League Premier Division leaders Dover will look to extend their 16-match unbeaten run when they visit Tooting and Mitcham on Saturday.

Boss Andy Hessenthaler saw his side re-establish their 20-point lead at the top with Tuesday's 2-1 home win over AFC Hornchurch and now he has challenged his squad to go on and win the title.

Hessenthaler said: "I said at the start of the season that, having come up from Division 1 South, I would be happy if we could make the play-offs.

"But now of course we want to make sure we go up as champions and not have to worry about the play-offs."

John Keister (thigh) looks likely to miss the Tooting game but Matt Fish (foot) and Jon Wallis (groin) should both return.

Giuliano Graziloi missed the Hornchurch game with a virus but Hessenthaler is hopeful the striker will have recovered by the weekend.
