Insights:
  • Spennymoor Town have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Gateshead have failed to keep a clean sheet in all their away matches.

Gateshead could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a FA Cup game only four sleeps ago. That game, against Altrincham, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Gateshead.

It's the second away game in a row for Gateshead, but there's smiles all around after the 3-2 victory versus Altrincham in the FA Cup last time out. The end of the last match, against Altrincham, was very satisfying as Macaulay Langstaff scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Alfreton Town.

Gateshead are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 8 times in 5 away games so far. The Gateshead manager M. Williamson has some worries about the defense as 10 goals have been conceded in these travels.
