Dorking Wanderers form and stats

Dorking Wanderers are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the National League, having played 3 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 2 losses). Three has not been a lucky number for Wanderers as they have been defeated three times in a row since the Gateshead match.

Dorking Wanderers might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Wrexham proved too strong as Dorking Wanderers slumped to a 0-5 defeat in front of their own fans. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Wrexham was particularly ugly (0-5). The humiliation is still top of mind.

A 1-4 loss hosting Boreham Wood before that.
