Flashback to Sat 24 Feb '24 when Chippenham Town graced the pitch as the victorious home team, defeating Dover Athletic 2-1. Looking at the recent buzz, both teams arrive at this match with their tails temporarily tucked in, nursing losses from their previous minefield encounters—Chippenham Town dropped their marbles against Hemel Hempstead with a 0-1 loss, whereas Dover Athletic stumbled in their match against Tonbridge Angels, ending up 1-2 under the weather.

In the realm of individual brilliance, keeping an eye on H. Parsons of Chippenham Town might be a good idea for Dover Athletic defenders, as he happens to have found the net twice this season. Meanwhile, Chippenham Town’s scribes have a task on their hands in bottling up F. Mampolo, the leading supplier of assists for Dover Athletic this year, having set up four goals on a darling silver platter.

As for possession stats, both teams are wandering in the void of numerical oblivion with an average of 0%, making it a match where possession might switch faster than a teenager changes music tracks. Speaking of corners, both sides, embarrassingly enough, sit at a grand total of zero average per match, so don't expect a corner kick bonanza anytime soon.

Discipline seems to favor the better-behaved Dover Athletic with 8 yellow cards and not a single shade of red, while Chippenham Town has collected 21 yellow cards like they’re part of a shiny collector's series, albeit without Red cards—yet both share the pain equally in conceding just one penalty goal.
