Barnet form and stats

4-4-6 (win-draw-lost) are the National League numbers at home for Barnet so far this season. When Barnet hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Aldershot Town, Weymouth, Woking, Altrincham, King's Lynn Town, Wealdstone and Barnet), they have won 2 of 5 matches!

Mason-Clark was the last player to score a league goal for Barnet and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Barnet haven't scored in 210 minutes.

In their previous game, the manager Brennan led his Barnet to a defeat away at Halifax Town. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at The Hive Stadium.

Preceding that game was the home draw versus King's Lynn Town that ended 0-0.

Barnet have conceded 27 from these games.

Dover Athletic form and stats

Dover Athletic have only collected 3 points from their away games in the National League, after 0-3-12 (15 played). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Dover have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone 17 consecutive matches without winning on the road. The last time three points were secured away was the Stockport County game.

Dover Athletic failed to get anything from their last game, a home match vs Grimsby Town (placed 9th) that ended with defeat 1-3.

A 0-0 draw at Aldershot Town's stadium before that.

The attacking power of Dover Athletic when travelling is not overwhelming with 12 goals scored from 15 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Dover Athletic's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 39 goals in 15 travels. When Dover Athletic is visiting a side on the bottom half, 4 of 6 matches have ended with three or more goals.
