Milton Keynes travel to take on Darlington at 96.6 TFM Darlington Arena on Saturday afternoon, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 4 games played, The Dons have recorded 1 wins, and Darlington have come away with 2 victories.
The last time the two teams met at Darlington was amazingly over twenty years ago, in December 1982, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 2 winners in a Fourth Division match.
