Maidstone vs FolkestonePrediction, probable lineups, recent form & season stats

The Gallagher Stadium hosts a Maidstone United side still on nothing after a 1-2 home defeat on the opening day and a Folkestone Invicta team that swept their first opponent aside 5-1 at their own ground: three points, third place and five goals in a single match. Nine goals in those two matches is far above the divisional average of 2.83 goals per game. Both clubs have scored and both have conceded, Maidstone twice and Folkestone once. Thirteen places separate them in the table, though the sample behind that is a single match and needs handling with care. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
