WEYMOUTH are back in league action this weekend as they welcome Chesham United to the Bob Lucas.

Mark Molesley's side get back to the bread and butter of the National League South on Saturday when the Buckinghamshire-based club visit Dorset.

It comes after back-to-back cup games, against Forest Green Rovers in the FA Cup, and Portland United in the Dorset Senior Cup. 

Defeat to National League side Forest Green was followed up with a 'professional' performance against Portland on Tuesday night, which saw them progress into the quarter finals.

Molesley's side will now be looking to pick up their league form after defeat last time out to Enfield. 

The Terras sit at the foot of the table with just four points from their opening ten games, and this weekend's opposition will again provide a challenge for the Dorset club.

Chesham come into the game having defeated National League side Yeovil Town in the FA Cup last weekend. 

On top of that the Generals are enjoying a decent start to life in the National League South after promotion from the Southern League. 

Speaking ahead of the game, Molesley said: "It will be another tough game for us and vitally important. 

"Chesham are flying high after beating higher opposition in the FA Cup last weekend and they are riding the crescent of a wave after their promotion, so we will need to be at our absolute best.

"But it is going to be great to get back in front of our home faithful and try to get ourselves moving up the league."

The midweek cup tie gave Molesley an opportunity to get some more minutes into players and build confidence within the squad, but they are still without Brandon Goodship and Malachi Linton.

The Terras boss also confirmed that Linton has suffered a setback in his return from injury. 

He added: "Unfortunately Mal is still some way off as we have had a setback with him, so he is out longer than we would have liked.

"Brandon is at the point where we are bringing him back, and it is about how his knee reacts, but we can't rush him. 

"He is on the field but needs to tick a few boxes before he is back training with the team - it is a critical 10 days for him."

Kick off at the bob lucas is at 3pm on Saturday, October 19.
