August’s draw ended Ebbsfleet’s six-game winning streak against City. Dominic Samuel cancelled out Scott Wilson’s early opener for the Romans in an entertaining contest at the Kuflink Stadium. The Kent side’s last visit to Twerton was in February 2023 where they won 3-1 – all the goals in an eventful first half which also saw City lose three players to injury. Sonny Cox netted the consolation for Jerry Gill’s men. The two first met in 1947, the first 63 contests were under Ebbsfleet’s former name Gravesend & Northfleet.
