Sutton United form and stats

Sutton United's results here at The Borough Sports Ground in the League Two have been very modest with 2 victories, 1 draw and 4 defeats.

Sutton United are hoping to put things right at home after a defeat in their previous match, the score 1-4 away versus Doncaster Rovers. Smith, who usually features in attack, was the highest rated performer for the side in that fixture, earning a rating of 7.62 (out of 10). Smith scored one goal and hit one key pass.

A 0-0 result against Crawley Town (after extra-time, 5-4 on penalties) before that one, played at home in the EFL Trophy. 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 Sutton have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 15 matches with the results: Won 8, drawn 3 and lost 4.

The manager Gray will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Wrexham in only three days.

Sutton United are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 7 games. 9 goals have been conceded.
