GRAHAM Turner will bank on his set-piece kings to cut Conference new boys Grays Athletic down to size.
Hereford United host last season's FA Trophy winners and Conference South champions at Edgar Street for the first time in their history.
The Bulls, favourites to land the championship, are in second place behind Exeter City after taking six points from their opening three league games.
But Turner's side may find it difficult overcoming the fast-improving Essex side, one of the league's promotion outsiders.
A high-scoring game could be on the cards with 15 goals already scored between the two teams.
Hereford have registered seven goals, with three strikes resulting from Alex Jeannin's corners. Turner has been satisfied with United's start to the 2005/06 term and is pleased with the side's new attacking dimension.
"It's not a bad start, six points from nine," said Turner. "We look quite capable of creating chances. I'm delighted with the delivery of set-pieces, particularly corners.
"Three goals out of the seven have resulted from close-range efforts from corners delivered by Alex Jeannin. When sides come here and defend in numbers, that is one extra asset we now have."
Loan signing Darren Blewitt had an x-ray on a foot problem and is the only doubt for Turner.
Long-term absentees Jamie Pitman and Simon Travis are closing in on a first-team return.
Guy Ipoua and Adam Stansfield are set to stay in attack, although Danny Carey-Bertram gave Turner food for thought. He smashed four goals as Hereford's reserves beat Kidderminster Harriers 7-1.
