Recent respective form guides

Bath City's woeful home form means they have chalked up just a single victory, with 5 defeats, from the last six. While Stripes & City have scored 4, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Gateshead's away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. Tynesiders have conceded 9 goals in these games, and only hit 3 in reply.

Bath City find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 44 games have yielded only 28 points.

Gateshead find themselves in a respectable 8th position, courtesy of the 70 points they have accumulated from 43 games.
