Ebbsfleet stretched their lead at the top of National League South to five points with a comfortable win over Braintree on Tuesday night.
Top scorer Dominic Poleon and former Gillingham forward Greg Cundle both scored twice for the Fleet made it eight wins out of eight on a rain-soaked evening at Stonebridge Road.
Braintree arrived in fifth place and on the back of three straight wins and the final scoreline was probably harsh on the visitors who rather than try and park the bus, did at least push bodies forward in an attempt to give the leaders a game.
Their brave approach failed to pay off. The Fleet made two changes from their last outing, with Joe Martin and Josh Wright returning to the starting line-up.
