Forest Green Rovers form and stats

With 4 League One wins, 0 draws and 11 defeats from their home games, Forest Green Rovers are certainly not brimming with confidence. It's been an uphill battle for Forest Green Rovers in their home games for quite some time now, as four matches in a row are lost here. Not since the Cheltenham Town game have they avoided the disappointment of defeat.

Rovers shared the glory with Morecambe in their last match, an away game that ended all square 1-1. The hometeam coach Burchnall made a successful contribution in the game against Morecambe, bringing on Clarke who scored the equalizer in the 1-1 draw. Midfielder O'Keeffe was the best player on the team with a rating of 7.21 (out of ten) in that game. O'Keeffe hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

Ahead of that match, Forest Green Rovers lost 0-2 at home to Peterborough United.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Rovers as they are travelling to their away game against Ipswich Town in the League One. That match is four days after this one.

The goals haven't exactly been flowing for Forest Green Rovers here at The New Lawn in the league, with less than one goal per game on average (11 from 15 games). Rovers have conceded 27 from these games.

Charlton Athletic form and stats

3-5-5 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Charlton Athletic in their League One matches away. Winning streaks in away matches are not that common, but Charlton Athletic are close to a proper streak after winning their two previous away games.

This fixture can not go any worse than the previous one, the home defeat versus Fleetwood Town with 1-2 on the scoreboard. The attacker Rak-Sakyi got a match rating of 7.61 in that game. Rak-Sakyi scored one goal, hit one key pass, dribled past the opponent 5 of 10 times and had 23 successful passes (of 26 total).

Preceding that game was the away victory against Exeter City with the score of 2-1.

Betting fact: Both sides have scored at least once in 8 of this club's last 10 league matches.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Charlton manager Holden as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Derby County.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Charlton Athletic have scored 16 goals in 13 league games away. In the opposite end, Charlton have conceded 20 goals in their away games.
