Recent respective form guides

Gravesend & Northfleet will be hoping to improve on their poor home form, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While The Fleet have scored 8, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Crawley Town's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Reds have hit 5 goals, 9 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Gravesend & N. find themselves struggling down in 15th position in the league having picked up 28 points from their 24 matches. Crawley Town's 35 points from 23 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 11th position.
