Portland United are looking to 'put their stamp on the game' when Bournemouth FC visit the Camp & Satherley on Saturday afternoon.
The Blues come into the game after a hard fought 2-0 win over Wincanton on Tuesday night, with star striker Greg Borthwick getting both goals.
With Poppies visiting Portland on Saturday for the Wessex League Premier clash, Blues joint manager Josh Hickman wants his team to go out and put the visitors under pressure from the off.
He said: "It's really early in the season and we no what Poppies will give us. It's another Dorset derby and we want to put our stamp on the game, we are at home and we want to be on the front foot but we won't underestimate them."
The Blues are set to welcome Ben Holloway back to the fold after his international clearance came through after playing a couple of games in the US over the summer.
Shane Evans will be unavailable for the game with work commitments and Josh Camp will have a late fitness call ahead the tie after picking up a knock.
Freddie Beale may also miss the tie with the young forward playing for Eastleigh in the FA Youth Cup on Friday night.
