We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Gateshead form and stats
3-1-3 (win-draw-lost) are the Vanarama National League North numbers at home for Gateshead so far this season. Gateshead are very eager to stop a potential losing streak at Gateshead International Stadium, having lost their two previous games here.
The Gateshead crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-3 to Spennymoor Town here at Gateshead International Stadium in a Vanarama National League North match. Before that, Gateshead played out a draw 2-2 when visiting Blyth Spartans.

Blyth Spartans form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Blyth Spartans, who have the fewest scored goals (10) in Vanarama National League North, so far with only 3 points returning home. The records show 1-0-6 (win-draw-lose). Three consecutive losses in away matches means Spartans are growing more and more desperate for a good performance on the road.
There might be some fixture complaints from Blyth Spartans as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous match, the Vanarama National League North match against Darlington (0-6). A draw for Spartans before that, at their own venue hosting Gateshead (2-2).
As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Darlington was particularly ugly (0-6). The humiliation is still top of mind.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Spartans as they have only managed to score 6 times from 7 away games in the league. Spartans can't defend away. 22 goals have been scored by the opposition in 7 matches, an average of more than three per game.
