Worthing would have been hoping to return to winning ways after five defeats in six matches against a Hawks side who are bottom of the table. On Saturday Worthing had lost 2-0 at home to Haringey Borough, who moved to the top of the table.

Worthing are back in action on Saturday when they host local rivals Bognor Regis at Woodside Road.
