MARGATE will be pleased to welcome back Sam Sodje for Saturday's Nationwide Conference clash against promotion-chasing Hereford at Dover's Hoverspeed Stadium.

The powerful centre-half has missed the last three games through suspension but is posied to come straight back into the side.

Midfielder John Keister is, however, out after being handed a three-game ban following his recent red card against Dagenham and Redbridge.

The Gate will be looking to continue their impressive league form at Crabble, having won four of their last five matches there.
