Dulwich Hamlet host Chatham Town in a Non League Premier - Isthmian Regular Season fixture on 20 October 2026.

This matchup pits a side in sharp defensive trouble against one that has found attacking rhythm, setting up a genuinely competitive encounter.
Team form
Dulwich Hamlet
Dulwich Hamlet's recent record is alarming. They have lost their last two league outings without scoring — 0-2 at Burgess Hill Town and 0-3 at Enfield Town — a collapse that masks an earlier run of three wins in four. Over their last five games they have managed only 1.4 goals per game while conceding 1.6, a reversal of their season average of 1.82 scored and 1.45 conceded. The shutout drought is the real concern here; they have not found the net in two consecutive fixtures.
Chatham Town
Chatham Town's form is substantially more encouraging. Their last five outings show 11 goals scored and just 6 conceded, a 2.2 per game attacking rate that outpaces their season average of 2.00. They won 3-0 at Whitehawk and 3-1 at home to Three Bridges, though they did lose 0-1 at Dartford and 2-3 at home to Wingate & Finchley. The attacking potency is real, and their defensive record over this stretch — 1.2 goals conceded per game — is tighter than their season average of 1.27.
Head-to-head
The head-to-head record favours Chatham across the last five meetings. They have won three of the five, including a 3-1 victory at home in August 2026 and a 5-2 away win in August 2023. Dulwich won most recently on 24 February 2026 with a 1-0 home result, and the sides drew 2-2 in April 2025. Chatham's dominance in this fixture is clear, and they arrive with genuine psychological advantage.
Key factors
Dulwich's attacking collapse is the defining issue. Two consecutive blanks suggest either tactical dysfunction or a confidence crisis that cannot be ignored at this level. Chatham, by contrast, are clinical in front of goal and have tightened their defence. The visitors' recent 3-1 win over Dulwich in August remains fresh context. Dulwich will need to restore their attacking threat urgently; Chatham will seek to exploit the hosts' current vulnerability and press their advantage in this fixture.
Prediction
Chatham's superior form, attacking efficiency, and head-to-head record position them as the slight edge in this tight contest. Dulwich's recent scoreless run is a critical weakness against an opponent that has scored at will. Both sides should create chances — Chatham's attacking threat and Dulwich's desperation to end their drought suggest an open game — but the visitors' clinical finishing and defensive solidity give them the edge.
This is a finely balanced affair, but Chatham Town hold a slight edge. Expect a competitive match with chances at both ends, though the visitors' form and head-to-head advantage make them the marginally more likely winners.
