There are just nine games left to play in the Bostik Premier Division so the battle to stay out of the bottom three is really hotting up. Whitehawk are the most improved side in the division with a remarkable up turn in form - they only won four of their first twenty-nine games but have since won four of four which has lifted them out of the relegation zone. 

Midfielder JP Kissock recently re-signed for The Hawks in January having made thirty-three appearances the club during their Vanarama South play-off final season in 2014-2015. They have also signed striker Duane Ofori-Acheampong on loan from Woking who made his debut in the 0-3 win at Harlow Town and scored in their 1-3 local derby win at Lewes. He has previously played in non-league's top division with Dover Athletic and Torquay United and for Dartford in the Vanarama South. 

Burgess Hill Town are twelve points off of eight points off of safety and are without a win in eleven league games which was 0-3 away to Lewes on New Years Day. They are Harlow Town have the worst defensive record in the division letting in seventy-five goals in their thirty-three games played which equates to 2.27 goals per game. 

Corinthian Casuals are without a win in seven league games - they have a tough run of games coming up against Bishops Stortford, Tonbridge Angels, Dorking Wanderers and Carshalton Athletic before three huge games away at Burgess Hill Town, at home to Wingate and Finchley and then a trip to Potters Bar Town. 

Wingate and Finchley have a home game against title favourite's Dorking Wanderers at the weekend before a huge must win game for both teams when they visit Harlow Town on Saturday 16th March before an equally important game at home to Potters Bar Town the weekend after. 

Harlow Town will be looking for revenge against Kingstonian on Saturday. The Hawks lost 7-0 against them in October. The K's will be much changed form the starting XI in that game under the new management of former Hemel Hempstead Town and Billericay Town boss Dean Brennan - only goalkeeper Rob Tolfrey and striker Louie Theophanous remained in their team from the Harlow game in their last game against Wingate and Finchley. Kingstonian are without a win in nine league games. Former Enfield Town defender Jonathan Muleba has recently signed for The K's having played 22 times in the Vanarama National league for Braintree Town this season.
