Macclesfield managed to equalize in injury time, getting away with a point from a home game against Kidderminster with the final 1:1 result. Hosts conceded in the middle of the first halftime, but still managed to stay undefeated, for seventh consecutive match right now, having five victories and only two draws.
Meanwhile, in last eleven matches they have only one defeat and eight victories in all competitions, with the good run of results saw them climbing up to the 15th position at the table, after a disastrous start in the season. Although they are still in the second part of the table, the team’s atmosphere is now much better, while they have gained safe distance from the relegation zone now. Coach John Askey was pleased after recent run of positive results, saying that the team has to stay focused in the same manner in next matches too even though he was very angry with the referee in second half of the game against Kidderminster and has eventually earned exclusion. Only problem for the home team remain injured defender Efe Sodje (6/0).
Dartford continued with their problematic performances away from home, as the team suffered yet another defeat on the road, this time to Woking 3:0. It was their third consecutive performance away from their fans and third consecutive defeat, as the team finds themselves in the relegation battle now.
Still, they are only couple of points away from safe zone and with a lot of time remaining, will have every chance to overturn the situation into their favor. Atmosphere in the club isn’t at the good level anymore, as many fans started criticizing players and coach, Tony Burman. Coach has said that it’s the easiest thing to retire from the position, but instead of it, he will try to pull something positive out of the next matches they have scheduled. However, with away 1-2-7 form and twenty one goal conceded out of these ten matches, it’s hard to see Dartford getting away with something on the road against any in-form side in Conference league. Injured is midfielder Bradbrook (15/3), while Noble (midfielder, 18/2) is suspended for this game.
*Macclesfield has three consecutive home wins, while Dartford lost previous three matches on the road.
During last few weeks, Macclesfield showed much better form and condition overall, while Dartford has huge problems playing on the road this season and everything but a home victory would be considered as a surprise.
