Whites make the 520-mile round trip to Devon to take on the 16th placed Gulls at Plainmoor on Saturday.

Both teams have had a fortnight without a competitive fixture after their early FA Cup exits.

TORQUAY’S RECENT LEAGUE FORM

Saturday’s hosts have picked up four points out of their past two National League games following a 1-1 draw at Wrexham last time out.

They beat the visiting Kings Lynn Town 2-0 at Plainmoor on October 23 after suffering defeat by the same margin at Bromley in their previous league outing.

LAST MEETING

We lost 2-0 at Plainmoor last October after defender Kyle Cameron scored twice in the behind closed doors fixture.

Our last victory at Torquay was on October 7th, 2017 when goals from Cambridge United loanee Paul Lewis and Ryan Bird secured a 2-0 win.

WHAT THEY ARE SAYING ABOUT DOVER

Manager Gary Johnson and defender Dean Moxey both spoke to TUFC TV ahead of our visit.

SATURDAY’S NATIONAL LEAGUE FIXTURES

Aldershot Town vs Grimsby Town

Altrincham vs Boreham Wood

Chesterfield vs Weymouth

King’s Lynn Town vs Wrexham

Maidenhead United vs Dagenham & Redbridge

Notts County vs Solihull Moors

Southend United vs Woking

Stockport County vs Bromley

Torquay United vs Dover Athletic

Wealdstone vs Barnet

Yeovil Town vs Eastleigh

Dover continue to search for their first win of the season as they travel to Southend this evening.

Despite coming from behind twice, three goals in the last 25 minutes against Stockport on Saturday sealed another defeat in what has been a disappointing season for Andy Hessenthaler’s men.

Likewise, this evening’s hosts are also struggling to get wins on the board this season, having picked up two in their first 12 games. This form led to the sacking of manager Phil Brown at the beginning of October, with Kevin Maher coming into replace him and ex-Barnet manager Darren Currie coming in as his number two.

Last time out, the National League newcomers suffered their 8th defeat of the season as a late Tyrone Marsh goal meant they were defeated away from home by Boreham Wood.

SOUTHEND’S PLAYER TO WATCH

Rhys Murphy knows how to score in this division, having done it consistently for Yeovil Town over the last few years. He is also top scorer for The Shrimpers with three goals this campaign.

LAST TIME WE MET 

The last time we played this evening’s host was in the FA Cup in 2019.

On that day Hessenthaler’s men came out on top against a side who were struggling in League One at the time.

With seven minutes left of the game, Ruel Sotiriou scored the only goal of the game shortly after coming onto the pitch.

The Orient loanee made a name for himself live on BT Sport by latching onto a long ball and firing past the goalkeeper to send Whites’ into the Second Round.

Dover make the long trip to Gloucestershire for the second time in a week this evening as they face Yate Town in the rescheduled FA Cup Fourth Qualifying Round replay.

Last Tuesday’s encounter at Lodge Road was postponed an hour after the scheduled kick off time due to a floodlight failure.

This replay came about after Andy Hessenthaler’s men came from behind to earn a draw against The Bluebells at Crabble.

Whites went behind early on at Crabble through Olly Mehew, before Ricky Miller equalised with his first competitive goal of the season midway through the second half.

Reda Johnson was sent off with 10 minutes to go in the tie and will miss tonight’s replay.

The winners of this tie will welcome Yeovil Town in the First Round proper, after they knocked out Weymouth on penalties in their own replay last Tuesday, with ties commencing on the weekend of 6th November.

Andy Hessenthaler will be looking to see his team bounce back from defeat this evening as they welcome Aldershot Town to Crabble.

Whites conceded five in the first half on Saturday as they fell to a 6-0 defeat away to top of the league Grimsby.

This result means that Dover remain bottom of the table on -9, having just picked up three points this season.

Meanwhile, our opponents sit one place above us in 22nd. They have lost three from their last five games and sit 13 points above Whites on four points.

Last time out, heavy rainfall meant that their home game against Wrexham was abandoned in the second half with the Welsh side leading 2-0.

ALDERSHOT’S PLAYER TO WATCH

Despite only picking up one win so far this season, AFC Wimbledon loanee Corie Andrews has been in fine form for The Shots, scoring five goals in his first nine games this season.

Dover travels to high-flying Grimsby Town on Saturday as they look to get their first three points on the board.

Andy Hessenthaler’s men will be looking to bounce back from last weekend’s 1-0 defeat at Crabble against Kent rivals Bromley.

Grimsby currently sits third in the National League table and two points below league leaders Chesterfield with a record of five wins, two draws, and a single defeat in their opening eight games.

That defeat was 3-1 at Bromley n Tuesday.

This will be the first time since 2016 that these two sides will face each other.

That game finished 1-1 after Omar Bogle gave The Mariners the lead from the penalty spot before Jack Parkinson equalised for Whites just before the hour mark.

GRIMSBY’S PLAYER TO WATCH

Summer signing John McAtee has had a good start to his Grimsby career, having scored four goals in his first eight games this season.
