Recent respective form guides
Gateshead's home form is poor, winning just 2 of the last six, and losing the other 4. While Tynesiders have scored 6, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Altrincham's away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. Only 5 goals have been registered in this time, with 7 leaked at the wrong end.
Gateshead are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 28 points from 32 matches. Altrincham's 45 points from 30 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.
