A strong squad, including fit-again Reece Grego-Cox and Joe McNerney, has been named by manager John Yems for Tuesday night’s Sussex Senior Cup quarter-final against Eastbourne Borough.
Grego-Cox hasn’t played since injuring his hamstring against Port Vale on December 14 while McNerney has been out for the last three matches.
With Michael Luyambula recalled from his loan spell by Birmingham City, Alfie Jones is expected to make his full debut in goal and Jack Powell will get his first opportunity to impress since he returned from a spell with Aldershot Town.

Eastbourne Borough currently sit 14th in National League South after Saturday’s 1-1 draw at Chelmsford City. They are managed by Danny Bloor, an experienced figure in Sussex non-league circles, who took over when Reds’ coach Lee Bradbury left the club last November.
A familiar face in their squad is ex-Reds midfielder Dean Cox made 27 appearances for the club from 2017-18 and although he was sent off in Eastbourne’s recent game against St Albans City, the ban does not include Sussex Senior Cup matches.
Kick off is 7.30pm at Horsham FC’s Hop Oast Stadium.
Admission (cash on the turnstiles) is £5 adults, £2 concessions and under-18s.
There is no spectator parking at the stadium but there is a park and ride facility at Hop Oast which is five minutes walk from the Camping World Stadium.
