Exeter host Droylsden tonight.

Exeter are 6th in the standings, 3 points behind Cambridge, who occupy the last playoff spot, but with 2 games in hand, including this one who is a 99% win. Their home record is 11-7-1 with a 36-22 GD. They have been excellent at home lately, winning 8 and drawing 1 in their last 9.

Droylsden are last in the standings, 18 points away from safety, so they are as good as relegated. Their away form is horrible, 0-3-15 with a 14-50 GD. Their defense is a joke away, where they lost 4 of their last 5. The last game away was a draw at uninterested Rushden&Diamonds, but now they will travel to a very motivated team.

Droylsden will be without eight first-team players, including suspended duo Steve Daly and Jamie McGuire. Also out are Dale Johnson (hamstring), Jamie Tandy (foot), Kevin Lynch (knee), Terry Fearns (illness), Ashley Burbeary (stomach) and Lee Roche (jury service). Exeter have no injury concerns, but they may shift their best players as a hard game against Stevenage follows this one.

The hosts are very motivated, and even if the important players may only get 45 minutes here, i still believe they can beat this injury-full Droylsden. The visitors will be playing their 4th game in 8 days, and i don't think they can handle it with this thin squad. Good luck.
