All in all it has been a very rough period for Nuneaton Town who hasn’t won a game in their last 14 attempts. Their previous win was against Darlington.

It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the United of Manchester game long ago, can be stopped today.

Darlington form and stats

The loot brought home from travels has not been plentiful for Darlington as they have only collected 17 points from their 17 away games. Darlington only has 3 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 8 draws. Darlington has lost their two previous away games and are eager to kill a negative trend in its infancy.

Two away games in a row for Darlington, who will hope to get a better result in this one after losing 2-4 versus Hereford in the Vanarama National League North. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against AFC Telford United wasn't a success with a 1-3 loss.

The schedule is very tough for Darlington now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Vanarama National League North game at Nuneaton Town is waiting in only zero days.

Darlington has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches this season, 27 goals from 17 games. The Darlington manager T. Wright has some worries about the defense as 37 goals have been conceded in these travels.
