15:00 Kick-Off


Woking’s second home game of 2025 comes with the visit of Ebbsfleet United to the Laithwaite, with Neal Ardley having navigated his first six games in charge without defeat.

It’s been a busy week off the pitch, with new signings Jacob Mazionis, on loan from Ipswich Town, and right back Tariq Hinds joining the Cards, with both in line to make their first league appearance.

Ardley will have a host of players to choose from after the likes of Dennon Lewis and Lewis Walker have impressed in the last week, with the latter making a big impact at Yeovil off the bench last time out.

Opposition Watch
Ebbsfleet United have had a chaotic season. Josh Wright’s first managerial job came after the departures of Danny Searle and Harry Watling, all whilst a remarkable number of players have revolved around the door at the Kuflink Stadium.

Woking fan favourite Jim Kellermann was one of the Fleet’s marquee signings, but despite being given the armband at the start of the season, now finds himself on loan at Kidderminster. Seven players have been loaned out, with three having now departed permanently, along with eight having been loaned in.

Despite the increase in player turnover, the Fleet sit rock bottom, without a win since September, their only win coming against Hartlepool at the Kuflink. With thirteen points separating them from 20th place, results have to change and change now for the Fleet to avoid them returning to the National League South.

Despite the doom and gloom, back-to-back draws against Boston and Yeovil have seen two goals for Aaron Cosgrave, a loanee turned permanent from Halifax and one for George Moncur, the former Southend loanee now at the Fleet from Leyton Orient, and Ebbsfleet haven’t been defeated at the Laithwaite since 2017.

Around the Ground
Ticket information is available here.

Victoria Way has now reopened, however, the A3 between the junction 10 interchange and the B2215/A247 near Send and Burntcommon will be closed.




Last Time Out
Woking were 3-0 victors at the Kuflink Stadium thanks to Max Dyche, Charley Kendall and Matt Ward goals in August.

The last meeting at the Laithwaite saw a Kellermann penalty cancelled out by Ouss Cisse as the sides drew 1-1, with the reverse fixture going the way of the Fleet thanks to a Dom Poleon goal.

Woking’s last victory at the Laithwaite against the Fleet was in October 2017 thanks to an Inih Effiong goal.
