Weymouth welcome Hemel Hempstead to the Bob Lucas this afternoon (3pm) in the National League South.

Terras boss Mark Molesley has admitted he was 'disappointed' his team could not get at least a point from last weekend's away trip to Tonbridge.

However, with goals from Malachi Linton and Ezio Touray, the Terras boss also said there were plenty of positives to take from the game. 

He believes the team can use that disappointment in a positive way when former Weymouth manager Bobby Wilkinson brings his side to the Bob Lucas.

Speaking to Echosport ahead of today's game, he said: "We are really looking forward to the first home game and we are looking to build on last week.

"There were some really good signs, although we are prob disappointed we didn't get something out the game, but we have to try and use that as fuel for the fire to react positively and keep learning and growing."

Hemel Hempstead come into the game after a 2-2 draw at home with Salisbury courtesy of goals from Ricky German and Brandon Barzey.

Wilkinson has strengthened the Hertfordshire-based club over the summer, with Molesley pointing out the 'strength in depth' the team has, and believes they will be one of the teams pushing for promotion this season.

He said: "Bobby is going to be no stranger to the Bob Lucas, he knows the club very well and has assembled a very strong side with strength in depth with established and experienced players in this league.

"There are two players to every position and will be a really big challenge for us but these are the games that excite us and why we want to be in this league and get out in front of our fans.

"I think they will have plans to be knocking at the top of the table with the business they have done in the summer, not just with the quality but the quantity of players that they possess.

When asked about the threats this weekend's visitor's could pose, Molesely added: "They can change it and mix it up and have a lot of options so we have to be respect full to the opposition, but we have to make sure they are worrying about us.

"We certainly don't fear anyone in this league - we are respectful - but we are not going to fear anyone.

"Its about trying to nullify their threats but also we are the home team so trying to put it on to them."

In terms of team news Brandon Goodship is the only player out having not yet returned from injury. 

Keelan O;Connell came through last week's game unscathed after returning from injury himself and Calvin Brooks is being slowly reintroduced to the team after a long term knee injury but is available.
