Recent respective form guides
Ebbsfleet United's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While The Fleet have scored 5, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Rushden & D.'s away form is none too clever either, collecting 1 win and 3 draws from the last six played. A generous 8 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.
Ebbsfleet Utd. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 5 points from 8 matches. Rushden & D.'s 12 points from 8 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 9th position.
