Maidenhead United welcome National League South leaders Hornchurch to York Road this afternoon, hoping to continue their recent form while putting a dent in the title hopes of one of the teams vying for top spot in the division.
Interim management team Ryan Peters and Aaron O'Brien take charge of the team for the first time after Alan Devonshire stood down from his post after last weekend's 3-0 home win over Chippenham Town.
That was the Magpies second straight win in the league and came after a 6-0 success away at Salisbury, but prior to that, the Magpies had been beaten seven times in eight matches.
They sit 13th in the table, now only four points off the top seven, and a win today would be huge for their hopes this season, and Peters and O'Brien in their first match leading the team without Devonshire.
Hornchurch moved three points clear at the top on Tuesday after hammering play-off/promotion contenders Hemel Hempstead Town 4-0 away from home.
