It is of course a game of huge importance to both sides, Canvey Island currently sit in 20th place on 21 points from 27 games. Valley sit one place above on 27 points but have played two games more. Canvey have won two and drawn one of their last six games taking 7 points. Valley have of course taken just the one point from their last 8 games with a goal difference during the period of -21 such has been the drop off in results.
