History of the Morecambe v Aldershot Town fixture

Aldershot Tn. face a trip to Morecambe at Christie 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 just last season, in March 2007, the Shrimps carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a Conference match.
