- Dorking 7/4 to beat Aldershot and make FA Cup First Round Proper for first time
- Aldershot unbeaten in last three matches across all competitions
- Fourth attempt for Dorking to progress from this stage
Dorking Eye History in FA Cup Run
For Marc White’s Dorking Wanderers, this weekend’s FA Cup tie isn’t just another fixture but a chance to make club history.
The Wanderers have reached the Fourth Qualifying Round several times in recent seasons but are yet to reach the First Round Proper.
Their closest call came in 2021-22, when they were heartbreakingly beaten on penalties by Hayes & Yeading United.
Having started the season well at home, White’s side will look to capitalise on their Meadowbank advantage and push for that elusive breakthrough.
Betting markets are now given on the game with bet365 going 7/4 that the Wanderers win in 90 minutes and get through to the First Round.
What the Manager says...
Match Odds Summary
| Result | Odds | Implied Probability |
|---|---|---|
| Aldershot | 6/5 | 45.5% |
| Dorking | 7/4 | 36.4% |
| Draw | 23/10 | 30.3% |
The narrow pricing underlines how evenly matched the sides are.
Aldershot’s experience gives them the edge, but Dorking’s motivation and home advantage make this one of the most intriguing FA Cup qualifiers of the round.
Aldershot Bring Experience
Visitors Aldershot Town arrive in Surrey looking to get through to the next round.
Tommy Widdrington’s side currently sit 19th in the National League and will be entering the cup at this stage as they are in the National League.
Aldershot have been vulnerable defensively, conceding in each of their last four matches.
That could give Dorking encouragement especially at a Meadowbank ground that often brings out their best performances.
