Dings head to the NorthEast tomorrow and face bottom of the table Darlington Mowden Park in round 20 of National League 1.
The Crusaders are currently in 11th and have much work to do.

Our home fixture against Darlington back in October was a hard battle, but the Crusaders came away with 5 points from the encounter, denying the visitors a losing bonus point, but the penalty count from the Dings was high, falling behind by 3 within 2 minutes of the game starting.

Players to watch
Scrum Half Ben Douglas is a mobile threat and a top try scorer for DMP with an impressive points tally so far this season, but they appear to be without their regular 10, as Junior Newton pulls on his boots for the home side.

The Crusaders have had a poor season on the road. It's a long way to travel and it's only the second time the 2 sides have met.
With a point behind, Esher have now brought up the deficit of games and sit in 12th.
One point ahead of the Dings in 10th is Sedgeley Park who we know are more than capable of an upset, having put Rosslyn Park to the sword in December.
