Match Preview
Gulls duo battle illness Daniel Leadbitter and Danny Stevens have both been fighting off illness as Torquay prepare to host Hereford. Midfielder Stevens was withdrawn at half time during the Gulls' 4-0 victory over AFC Wimbledon on Tuesday as he was unwell, but the 24-year-old recovered from the bug to train on Thursday and is expected to be fit for the clash with the Bulls. However, defender Leadbitter - who has already spent two months on the sidelines through injury this season - may not be well enough to take part. Irishman Ian Morris is a long-term casualty for manager Martin Ling. The winger has undergone an operation to remove a piece of bone floating in his knee and is likely to be out of action for several more weeks. Harry Pell will miss the trip as resurgent Hereford look to secure a fourth successive victory, but Joe Heath returns to contention. Midfielder Pell was booked for the fifth time this season in Tuesday`s 3-1 victory at Northampton and now serves an automatic one-match suspension. Defender Heath missed out at Sixfields having served a ban of his own for accruing five yellow cards, he duly comes back into the frame and will compete with fit-again pair Benoit Dalibard and Ryan Green as well as Michael Townsend to start. Nathan Elder is expected to continue in attack as he looks to find the net for the third time in a week. The striker`s current loan deal from Hayes & Yeading expires after the trip to Plainmoor but the Bulls are close to agreeing an extension. Goalkeeper Adam Bartlett remains sidelined with his long-term thigh injury, along with midfielder Joe Colbeck (knee).

Match Report
Gulls fly past Bulls Torquay racked up their first back-to-back home League Two wins after first-half goals from Kevin Nicholson and Billy Bodin gave them a 2-0 win over Hereford. Left-back Nicholson smashed in a 40th-minute free-kick from an acute angle on the right to break the deadlock following a foul on winger Bodin. On-loan Swindon forward Bodin doubled the home side's advantage four minutes later with a simple tap-in after a flowing move from the home side. Playmaker Eunan O'Kane passed forward to target man Rene Howe who rounded Bulls keeper David Cornell before teeing up Bodin. United could have surged further ahead in the opening minute of the second-half but Cornell did well to palm away Danny Stevens' 20-yard rocket. Bodin also sent a 57th-minute half-volley just wide from 12 yards. Hereford's best opportunity came in the 69th minute when Tom Barkhuizen's cross from the right was headed over by target man Nathan Elder at the far post. Torquay should have scored again seven minutes from time when defender Joe Oastler sent over a superb cross from the right which fell to substitute Taiwo Atieno but his shot was cleared off the line by Hereford defender Rob Purdie.
