History of the Kettering Town v Rushden & Diamonds fixture

Rushden & D. face a trip to Kettering Town at Rockingham Road Ground on Saturday afternoon, and will hope to continue their unbeaten record at the ground. Half of the previous meetings have ended in a win, and the other half in a draw for Diamonds.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in August 2008, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a (Conference) Premier match.

Recent respective form guides

Kettering Town's disastrous home run has meant they have managed only 2 draws from the last six matches. Poppies have conceded a disappointing 7 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 2 of their own chances.

Rushden & D.'s away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the Diamonds, and 6 goals against.

Kettering Tn. lie just outside the playoff positions in the Blue Square (Conference) Premier, picking up 42 points from their 25 games so far. Rushden & D. find themselves in a respectable 8th position, courtesy of the 39 points they have accumulated from 24 games.
