MARK Collier is desperate to avoid becoming another one of Cheshunt's scalps tomorrow afternoon as the Premier Division's bottom club look to drag Supermarine into the relegation mire.
The Ambers have just three wins to their name all season and are currently marooned 15 points from safety, but Collier knows better than to underestimate his opponents.
Cheshunt have recently appointed a new manager in Gordon Boateng and with nine new players on board, Collier expects a feisty encounter at Hunts Copse.
"I think every team in this league has got something to play for, whether it's promotion, the play-offs or trying to avoid relegation," he said.
"Every game is like a cup final for Cheshunt now.
"They may think they are already down so they will come to us as a free spirit.
"They will be looking to take a few scalps before the end of the season and we have to make sure we are not one of them."
Supermarine lost 3-0 at Cheshunt in the reverse fixture in October, but Collier insists the last league meeting between the two sides will bear no relevance.
After Tuesday night's 6-0 drubbing at the hands of Clevedon Town in the errea Cup, the Marine chief is determined to focus on another three-point league haul.
He said: "There will not be any thoughts of Tuesday when it comes to kick-off.
"I don't want to be disrespectful to the Errea Cup, but compared to the league it is not our main priority.
"At the end of the season people will judge us on our league position so we want to finish as high as we can.
"We've had two very good results against Hemel Hempstead and Rugby and we must build on that now."
New signing Simon Heal could be out for up to three weeks with a calf strain he picked up in the 2-1 win at Rugby on Saturday.
Midfielders Chris Thompson and David Stroud are both suffering from a flu virus and are doubtful for the weekend.
Strikers Jason Welch and Ashley Edenborough both return to the fold after playing no part in Tuesday's cup debacle.
