Ebbsfleet United form and stats

After this away game Ebbsfleet return home for a Vanarama National League South game against Dulwich Hamlet. That game is only four sleeps after this.

It's finally time to play a game of importance again as a long period of training has passed. Ebbsfleet have played a number of friendly games in this period, resulting in 2 wins, 0 draws and 1 defeats from three fixtures.

The last season was not a pleasant experience for Ebbsfleet as they could not accumulate enough points to survive. After only 10 victories from 39 games, relegation was a fact. Ebbsfleet United's manager D. Kutrieb are hoping to lead the team right back to National League at the first attempt.
