The Robins change their focus to the league after Saturday’s disappointment of exiting the FA Cup to Bury A.F.C.

The form guide does not read well for the Robins going into the game on the back of three defeats in a row against the team top of the league with a 100% winning start to their campaign.

The game however gives the Robins the chance to change their recent fortunes and get back to winning ways.

Stockton Town come into the game as mentioned previously on the back of a 100% winning start but have not played since Bank Holiday Monday when they beat Shildon 2-1 at home.

The last time the two sides met was back in the Northern League First Division 2019/20 season, Stockton ran out 3-1 winners with Robins’ club record goal scorer Gareth Bainbridge on target from the penalty spot.
