PREVIEW: WHITES V ALDERSHOT

Athletic host their first match on Good Friday since confirming their National League status for next season.

Having trailed by two goals at Barrow last weekend, three goals in the final 17 minutes saw Athletic complete a dramatic turnaround to guarantee a finish above the bottom four on the league ladder.

The visiting Shots were unable to halt their own slide towards the National South and their relegation was confirmed after a 1-1 home draw with Hartlepool last Saturday.

And Dover will likely take note of the Shots’ away record this season.

Gary Waddock’s side have won three times on the road in the league, with their only victory in 2019 coming at Boreham Wood last month (2-0).

PLEASE NOTE THE MATCH WILL BE SEGREGATED
