The Yellows, currently 14th, earned a good away point on Wednesday evening, as they drew 2-2 away at Woodbridge Town, while they beat Stowmarket 2-1 away last Saturday.
This afternoon's visitors are Braintree Town Reserves, who beat Needham Reserves 2-0 at home (Stoneylands, Melford) last Friday, in their last fixture, and sit 13th in the league table.
Braintree's boss is Ross McPherson, who is also a team coach at Tottenham Hotspur, holding a "UEFA B" licence.
The two sides have met twice this season, with both sides winning once: Braintree won a league tie 1-0 at the start of the season at Stoneylands, as a solo goal from Reece Sayers confirmed the win.
However, Sudbury got payback on that results, as they thrashed the Iron 5-1, in a cup tie at the Wardale-Williams Stadium, under Ross McPherson's first match as Braintree boss.
Danny Laws could have a strong side available to him today - with many first team regulars back from suspension and available to play at the first team's trip to Thurrock (Ryman North, 3pm).
Louis Byers will be reporting at the Wardale-Williams Stadium from 2pm for FANbase - Updates on Twitter: @FANbaseBlog.
An extract from Braintree Town's fan forum says that they feel the match will be even.
