Sneaking up on the top clubs is the mission when these mid-table clubs duel. Both are targeting to improve their league table position, Dorking Wanderers in 12th and Aldershot Town in 16th place.

Insights:
  • Dorking Wanderers have the most conceded goals in the second half (22) in National League
  • Dorking Wanderers have scored at least twice as many goals at home as Aldershot Town have scored away.

It's no vacation for neither Wanderers nor Aldershot Town as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.

Dorking Wanderers form and stats

Dorking Wanderers have played 8 National League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-2-2 (wins-draws-losses).

The Dorking Wanderers manager White and his side return home after a 3-3 draw away versus Woking (placed 6th). As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

Ahead of that match, Dorking Wanderers won a home game hosting Wealdstone (3-1).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Dorking Wanderers have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 9 games) they have won 7 times, drawn 1 and lost 1.

Take note that 12 of the most recent 15 league matches from these players have had goals from both teams.

Wanderers are traveling soon after this match as the National League match at Halifax Town awaits in three days.

The Dorking Wanderers manager White has got the team scoring with 17 from 8 home games in the league. It's worth mentioning that 9 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches.

Aldershot Town form and stats

There's been little loot from Aldershot Town's travels as they have only collected 7 points from 7 away games in the National League. Aldershot Town only have 2 wins to counter their 4 defeats and 1 draw.

Two travels in a row for Aldershot Town, whose coach Molesley could celebrate last time after the win against Yeovil Town.

Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against York City.

We have checked recent matches where Aldershot Town have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 9 games were 4 victories, 3 draws and 2 defeats.

Aldershot have another match that requires travelling in just three sleeps, a National League match vs Torquay United. A strenuous itinerary for the visitors!

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Aldershot Town have scored 8 goals in 7 league games away. It's worth mentioning that 5 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 10 goals have been conceded by Aldershot Town in these games.
