Recent respective form guides
Histon's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. Stutes have conceded a disappointing 11 goals in this period, and managed to convert only 3 of their own chances.
Rushden & D.'s away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. A generous 13 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.
Histon are stuck down in the relegation zone of Blue Square (Conference) Premier with a return of just 27 points from their 33 games thus far. Rushden & D. find themselves in a respectable 8th position, courtesy of the 46 points they have accumulated from 31 games.
