- Dover have been in fine form recently, picking up 5 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats in their last 10 games in all competitions.
- However, the hosts have won just one of their five home games in all competitions so far (D2, L2).
Side with Dorking to edge a competitive contest
Dover Athletic FC have been in blistering form of late, taking four wins and a draw from their last five fixtures, including a 2-1 away win at Hanwell Town in FA Cup Qualification and a 1-1 home draw with Saturday's opponents Dorking in the National League South.
The Whites have been flying for some time now though, with Andy Hessenthaler's side having taken five wins, three draws and two defeats in their last 10 fixtures, and they've not been in the habit of beating Dorking, without a win in the last three meetings (D2, L1).
The Wanderers are a happy bunch at the moment, with Marc White's side having come through a chaotic 4-3 victory at home to Braintree Town in the NLS, before a 1-0 cup win away to Chatham Town.
Dorking are unbeaten in ten in all competitions (W5, D5) and they're well-drilled to play a possession-first style, using width and set pieces to probe for openings before then bursting into life when they inevitably come on to the ball.
Dover are a very different animal, playing with a ferocious press and plenty of edge to quickly counter-attack and turn these games into scraps, which should make for a very entertaining affair on Saturday.
Goals at both ends likely
The bet that stands out most for this FA Cup Qualification clash is 9/20 for over 2.5 goals and 2/5 for both teams to score.
The head-to-head record favours the visitors very slightly (W1, D2), but Dorking have much more to like about them for this clash, especially considering their unbeaten run and better away form.
Dorking average 2.40 goals per away game across all competitions (W1, D4), but they could be forced to break down a well-drilled Dover side in a goal-fest on Saturday.
Jack Bates has been the star of the show for Dover with four of the club's five goals in their last five games, but Dorking have a spark in Alfie Rutherford, who has two in the same amount.
