Dartford face a long journey to Barrow this weekend.

The Cumbrians beat Southport on Tuesday night after coming back from 2-0 down to register a 3-2 home victory – their second successive win.

Tony Burman’s men will travel north on Friday and hope to get back on track after their 4-1 defeat to AFC Telford with a win the following day.

"We knew this would be a tough week," said Burman, whose side made the trip to Grimsby last weekend.

"We might make changes on Saturday to keep them fresh, but on Tuesday (against Telford) it didn’t look as though we were struggling.

"The players are down and we have to lift them but they haven’t let anyone down."

The Darts will assess the extent of Tom Champion’s injury before they travel. Champion, pictured, went off on Tuesday with an ankle injury.
