Match Preview | Balham 14.12.24

Tadley-Calleva are without a win in five in all competitions, with three league defeats and one draw, while also bowing out of the Isuzu FA Vase to a strong AFC Whyteleafe.

Injuries and suspensions have hampered the Barlows Park side in recent weeks but they welcome back Aime Kamdem, Alex Miller and Connor Thorne after missing out on the 2-0 defeat at the hands of Fleet Town in midweek.

Adam Everiss, Brad Neal, Ash Neal & Sam Bagan are all unavailable which sees the inclusion of Aldershot U19 star Olliver Rowan and the scorer of our late equaliser in the Hampshire Senior Cup, Solomon Ceesay.

Today's hosts have had a very contrasting season to last as they currently find themselves sat nineteenth in the table, and staring down the barrell of relegation to Step six. A stark contrast from their ninth place finish in the 2023/24 season.

Balham, currently playing at Tooting & Mitcham Uniteds Imperial Fields, currently sit eleventh in the form guide from the last six games with one win, three draws and two losses, both coming from South London/Surrey rivals in Chipstead and AFC Whyteleafe.

Tadley currently sit eighteenth in the same form guide with just one win and one draw from the last six league fixtures.
