History of the Kettering Town v Gateshead fixture

Gateshead face a trip to Kettering Town at Rockingham Road Ground on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 6 out of 9 times.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in September 2009, as they swept to an impressive 4 - 0 win in a (Conference) Premier match.
