History of the Exeter City v Aldershot Town fixture

Aldershot Tn. face a trip to Exeter City at St James' Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to break their duck against the hosts. Most of the previous meetings have ended up in defeat for the The Shots.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in April 2008, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a (Conference) Premier match.
