There is encouragement to take from the Cannons’ recent home results. Back-to-back 2–1 victories over AS London and May & Baker EC brought six points at Parkside before a goalless draw at Burnham Ramblers and the midweek loss at Basildon. Saturday offers the chance to make it three successive home league wins.
Wednesday’s game highlighted the importance of making possession count. Cannons played some good football but struggled to trouble the home goalkeeper, while Matthew Huggins produced several important interventions before Basildon eventually broke through in the 71st minute. A sharper edge in the final third will be crucial this weekend.
FC Baresi arrive looking for a response of their own following consecutive home defeats against Hoddesdon Town and NW London. Their last five completed league matches have brought one draw and four defeats, although each of those losses was by just a single goal — a reminder that their recent games have been closely contested.
The visitors have already shown what they can offer this season, recording a 5–2 victory over Rayleigh Town and winning 2–1 away at Southend Manor. Those results suggest Cannons cannot afford to underestimate their attacking threat despite their recent run.
For Cannons, the challenge is clear: build on the recent performances at Parkside, create more clear-cut opportunities and turn home advantage into another three points.
Get down to Parkside and get behind the lads! ?⚪
