Dunstable Town continued their good form with a 1-0 win at Baldock Town on Tuesday night.
The hosts had the better opening chances with Harry Watson striking the bar on 11 minutes then Kai Summers headed over Ace Barker’s corner a minute later.
The Blues opened the scoring in the 25th minute when a fine ball from Jamie Ovington played in Liam Hayden beat his man and finished superbly.

Luka Lodder nearly added a second but narrowly shot wide from James Sales’ cross.
Alex Desmond saved well from Dylan Krikler down low to his right to keep his team in front.
Will McNeil shot wide for Baldock as they searched for an equaliser before the break.
The second half proved to be a bit of a stalemate with Dunstable holding firm and Desmond making a fine save to tip over Barker’s effort.
Lodder had a shot over before Baldock headed wide at the other end.
Hayden nearly doubled the lead when he latched on to Mulik Rickman’s pass, cut inside and narrowly missed the far post.
Both sides had a few half chances to find the net as a raft of substitutions came from the home side to try and breakdown the stubborn Blues defence but to no avail.
Team: Desmond; James; Sales; Butt; Ovington; Osborne; Goulding; Bircham; Hayden; Lodder; Kenna.
