Crawley Town form and stats

When playing at home in the League Two, Crawley Town have managed 8 wins, 5 draws and suffered 7 defeats from 20 games. Two draws in a row at home now for Crawley Town.

Stress levels are on the rise for Crawley's attacking players as they have now played 200 minutes without scoring in a league game. Ogungbo was their last goal scorer.

The followers are hoping that Crawley Town will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-4 away loss in the match against Barrow (placed 9th). Crawley were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one. Midfield player Roles got a match rating of 6.65 in that game, the max score being 10. Roles hit one key pass.

In the match before that, Crawley Town hosted Bradford City and drew the game 0-0.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Crawley Town have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 8 matches with the results: Won 2, drawn 4 and lost 2.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Crawley, as the League Two home game vs Colchester United is only three days away.

It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Crawley's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 29 times.
