Port Vale form and stats

Playing away, Port Vale have won 5 games, drawn 2 and suffered 6 defeats in the League One this season.

The manager Clarke was unhappy after their last game, played at their home ground Vale Park. Port suffered a 1-2 loss to Derby County (placed 4th). Port Vale goalkeeper Stevens enjoyed a fine day at work versus Derby County, but even with making six saves the beating could not be evaded.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-2 defeat against Peterborough United.

Port have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 13 league away games 14 goals have been scored. Port Vale's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 21 goals from these trips.
