It was a slow start to proceedings until Omar Bugiel expertly slipped Wilson in to coolly slot home the only goal of the game on the half-hour mark.
Sutton goalkeeper Dean Bouzanis produced a good save to beat away Alex Pattison’s near-post strike after the break.
Will Randall fluffed his lines twice as he failed to hit the target when he could have wrapped the game up late on.
