Darlington can go top of the table if they beat Brackley at Blackwell Meadows on Saturday.

Quakers go into the game one point behind leaders King’s Lynn after a run of six straight league wins.

But Brackley have always been tough opponents for Quakers -- they haven't lost here on their last four visits

Here are Alun's views on the game:

League position  2^nd (played 11 won 7, drawn 2, lost 2, goals scored 17, against 9, points 23)

Team news:  Full back Kallum Griffiths and centre half David Wheater are missing because of injury. Marcus Maddison's contract is being cancelled by mutual consent.
