The home supporters hope for a win and three points in this fixture, as the home advantage might do the trick against a struggling visitor. Wycombe Wanderers are in 9th place while the guesting Cheltenham Town panic at 17th.

Insights:
  • Wycombe Wanderers haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
  • Cheltenham Town have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

Wanderers are staying put; they can neither be promoted or relegated this season and are fighting only for positions. Cheltenham Town is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the League One. That game, against Oxford United, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Cheltenham Town.

Wycombe Wanderers form and stats

When playing at home in the League One, Wycombe Wanderers have managed 11 wins, 5 draws and suffered 6 defeats from 22 games.

The Wycombe Wanderers crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-2 to Lincoln City here at Adams Park.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Cambridge United and winning 2-1.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Wycombe Wanderers's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 5 games, won 3 matches, drawn 0 and lost 2.

Wanderers are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 32 goals in 22 games. From these home matches, Wycombe Wanderers have conceded only 21 goals.

Cheltenham Town form and stats

There's been little loot from Cheltenham Town's travels as they have only collected 19 points from 22 away games in the League One. Cheltenham Town only have 5 wins to counter their 13 defeats and 4 draws.

Cheltenham Town play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-4 to Oxford United (placed 19th). That loss was their first after three consecutive league rounds winning points. As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Oxford United was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind. The attacker May got a match rating of 6.85 in that game. May hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

That result followed a home victory 3-1 versus Forest Green Rovers.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Cheltenham playing away, we found 5 games. Results were 1 away win, 1 draw and 3 home wins.

The visitors have scored 17 goals from 22 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. In the opposite end, Cheltenham Town have conceded 34 goals in their away games.
