Kettering Town form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Kettering Town so far with only 5 points returning home. The records show 1-2-3 (win-draw-lose).

Kettering are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 3-3 draw at Alfreton Town (placed 21st). Prior to that result Kettering won their away game at Ashton United in the Fa Trophy. The scoreline was 2-1.

A crazy, crazy match with lots of goals last time out for Kettering, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that one, will this match be as much fun?

The schedule is very tough for Kettering now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Vanarama National League North game at Boston United is waiting in only three days.
