Sutton Utd's equivalent sample reads 9 wins, 6 draws and 5 losses from 20 matches, with 27 scored and 23 conceded. It's a solid record but leakier at the back than Aldershot's, and the win tally is lower too.

Aldershot's numbers look a touch stronger across the board, though both samples mix league games with cup and friendly fixtures, so it's not a pure like-for-like comparison.

Where they sit

Aldershot Town are fifth with 18 points from 10 games, while Sutton Utd are tenth with 17 points from the same number of matches. Just one point separates them despite the five-place gap in the table.

That's a reminder of how bunched things can get in this league early on, and it lines up with how competitive their recent meetings have been.

What this points to

Put together, this looks like a genuinely close fixture. Aldershot's overall form and league position give them a slight edge, but Sutton have shown they can compete and the two sides are barely separated on points.

It's also worth remembering this snapshot is taken a month out from kickoff, so the form picture could shift a fair bit by the time the two teams actually meet.
