Burton Albion form and stats

5 victories, 5 draws and 6 defeats. That’s what Burton Albion have to build on here at Pirelli Stadium in the League One.

Times are rough for the home team, having gone 215 minutes without scoring a league goal. Winnall was the last player to find the net.

The followers are hoping that Burton Albion will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-4 away loss in the game against Ipswich Town (placed 3rd). Burton were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one. Hughes, defender, was given a rating of 7.33/10 in that game, top of the team. Hughes won 11 of 16 duels.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Accrington Stanley.

It should be noted that a look at the 12 latest league games shows that 9 of them qualified as a both teams to score: NO result (only one or none of the teams scored a goal).

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Burton Albion, as the League One home game vs Peterborough United is only three days away.

Burton has scored 17 league goals at home this season, in 16 matches. 23 goals have been conceded. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 0 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Wycombe Wanderers form and stats

7-2-7 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Wycombe Wanderers in their League One matches away.

Wycombe Wanderers go into this game after a win, the home game against Fleetwood Town that ended 2-0. Goalkeeper Stryjek got the top player rating of the team with 8.45/10. Stryjek topped it up with a clean sheet.

Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Exeter City.

Low on goals? 13 of this team's last 17 league matches have had two goals or less.

The schedule is very tough for Wycombe Wanderers now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A League One game at Bristol Rovers is waiting in only three days.

Wanderers find the net regularly in their away games. 19 goals from 16 away fixtures in the league.
