DAN Wise is expected to return for Bridport tonight when they host Sherborne Town at St Mary’s Field (7.30pm).
The Bees suffered a disappointing 4-3 defeat against Larkhall Athletic in their opening fixture in the Toolstation Western Premier Division at the weekend and will be desperate to bounce back at the first attempt.
Having talismanic midfielder Wise back will certainly boost the Bees’ spirits but with Sher-borne having secured a point in a goalless draw at Brislington in their first outing, another tough encounter is expected.
Despite receiving his marching orders against the Larks, Tom Richardson will be availa- ble again this evening, but Chris Luke and long-term absentee Joe Charles will both miss out.
Luke is unavailable while Charles is still recovering from a cruciate-ligament operation.
Bees: Filkins, Hayter, Hill, Watts, Evans, Legg, J Filkins, C Clarke, A Staines, M Buckler, Morley, Richardson, Dovell, Condliffe, S Charles, Wise.
