Dover Athletic vs Wealdstone prediction
Dover Athletic head into this one on the back of a slender 1-0 defeat of Farnham Town last weekend. That leaves them firmly in the middle-of-the-table in the National League South. They have beaten Folkestone Invicta, Hanwell Town and then Dorking Wanderers in entertaining contests to reach the first round.
Wealdstone produced a surprise come from behind 3-2 defeat of Southend United at Grosvenor Vale at the weekend with a late winner scored by former Southampton winger Olufela Olomola. The Stones are hovering above the bottom four and the relegation places in the National League.
Wealdstone eased past Worthing by three goals to nil in the fourth qualifying round but this should be a tougher test, albeit one in which they remain favourites for.
