Recent respective form guides
Darlington's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While The Quakers have scored 8, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.
Aldershot Tn.'s away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the The Shots have hit 6 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Darlington find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 34 games have yielded only 16 points. Aldershot Tn.'s 54 points from 36 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.
