IRON TEAM NEWS
Midfielder Liam Thompson will play no further part this season at United with parent club Derby County diagnosing a grade two tear in the 20-year-old’s hip flexors.
Midfielder Dean Rance does however return to contention for the Iron following a series of injections to get himself back up-to speed.
Defender Will Smith has picked up a virus, ruling the loanee out of contention for Saturday.
Alfie Beestin (hamstring) and Aaron Chapman remain out through their respective injuries, whilst midfielder Tom Pugh misses the game through suspension.
THE OPPOSITION
With the Iron’s relegation confirmed on Easter Monday, the Shots will be looking to take advantage of United to boost chances of their own National League survival this season.
The Hampshire-based side currently sit in 20th place, with the Shots just two points above current relegation zone sitters Torquay United.
Registering 12 wins and 9 draws from 42 games this season, Tommy Widdrington’s side have just four games to ensure survival is achieved whilst an in-form Torquay, who have won four straight games in a row to give themselves a fighting chance of survival, give chase.

MATCHDAY DETAILS
Iron supporters will be located in the South East Corner of the Stadium and South East seats, situated in the South Stand at the EBB Stadium.
Aldershot state that there is little parking at the ground, with the suggestion of parking in the town centre multi-storey car park on Wellington Avenue, which is a five-minute walk from the EBB Stadium.
The clubhouse at the ground is for home fans only, however with the ground’s close proximity to the town centre, there are plenty of other options just a short walk away.
For supporters travelling through other means such as the train, Aldershot’s national rail station is just a short ten-minute walk away from the ground, meaning there will be no need to seek alternate transportation once arrived.
