Match Preview: Pools travel to Bromley

3 February 2024

After a hard-fought win last week against York City, Hartlepool United return to the road as they take on Bromley on Saturday (3pm kick-off).

The Lowdown
 
The result last week saw Pools move to 13th in the table, eight points off the play-off places. Mani Dieseruvwe marked his return from injury with a brace at home to York City. With 15 matches left to go, it's still all to play for under Kevin Phillips this season.
 
The hosts are second in the table, though they're 16 points off leaders Chesterfield. They've won just one of their last five games, a 5-1 win over Ebbsfleet in late December. Led by Andy Woodman, the Bromley side features former Pools striker Fela Olomola.
 
The History
 
There have been just nine meetings between the sides previously, with Pools winning just twice. Bromley have won six times, while one match has ended in a draw. Bromley won 4-1 earlier this season, and before that, the teams last met in a play-off eliminator. A first-half brace for Rhys Oates and an early strike from Luke Armstrong gave Pools a 3-2 win.
 
Team News
 
Despite coming off early last weekend, David Ferguson will be available for selection on Saturday. New signing Brennan Dickenson will also be eligible to make his debut after joining on loan from Oldham Athletic.
 
Alex Lacey is set to return to full training next week, while Josh Umerah and Dan Dodds remain sidelined.
