Folkestone Invicta v Leyton

RELEGATION-threatened Folkestone Invicta go into a potentially crucial Easter weekend hoping to record their first two Ryman Premier League ‘doubles’.

They play hosts to Leyton on Good Friday (kick off 1pm) and then travel to meet closest rivals Dover Athletic in an eagerly anticipated derby game on Easter Monday (kick off 3pm).

Invicta won 4-0 away to Leyton back in August thanks to goals from Simon Glover (2), James Dryden and John Ayling but that remains the Folkestone side’s only away league win of the season.

Leyton are currently sixth in the table – one place outside of the play off places - after drawing 0-0 away to Cheshunt on Tuesday night and have enjoyed a meteoric rise with three promotions in the past three seasons.

Meanwhile, Folkestone's Kent Senior Cup semi-final tie at home to Margate has been arranged for Tuesday April 12, kick off 7.45pm.
