COMPETITION STANDINGS
Dale have played two of their allocated four National League Cup fixtures, winning one and losing one. We are currently fifth in the table with just the top two in the group qualifying for the knockout stages.
Our final group game comes on the 11th February when we take on Wolves U21s at the Crown Oil Arena. Ticket details for both games can be found HERE.
A reminder that if the game is level after 90 minutes, there will be a penalty shootout for a bonus point.
THE OPPOSITION
Stoke have played three games in their campaign so far, with one win and two defeats to their name. An impressive 4-0 win at Forest Green Rovers on the 5th November was unable to be followed with a positive result, a subsequent 4-1 defeat at Altrincham sees them in sixth place, level on points with Dale.
