Dartford form and stats

The Dartford crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to St Albans City here at Princes Park in a Vanarama National League South match. Before that match, a win away at Maidstone United.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Slough Town form and stats
No Vanarama National League South points yet away for Slough Town, from their first 2 matches. It's a growing despair in Slough as they have recorded three consecutive losses. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Slough Town have lost on their last two travels.
Slough Town failed to get anything from their last game, a Vanarama National League South home match vs Hungerford Town (placed 2nd) that ended with defeat 1-3. It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Billericay Town wasn't a success with a 0-2 loss.
Slough are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is two wins, one draw and four defeats. From a total of seven matches.
Slough Town have the goal stats of 1-5 (for/against) from 2 business trips in the league at this early stage of the season.
