Altrincham form and stats

Three National League home games done for Altrincham, who are not happy collecting 2 points from these matches.

Altrincham faced defeat in their previous match, away at Solihull Moors (1-5). As you see from the result above, Altrincham suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.

Before that game, the home loss against Chesterfield with the scoreline 1-2.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Altrincham have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 11 games) they have won 7 times, drawn 1 and lost 3.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Altrincham as they are travelling to their away game against Dagenham & Redbridge in the National League. That match is four days after this one.

Altrincham are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 3 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Altrincham defense is not exactly impregnable. 5 goals conceded from 3 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Scunthorpe United form and stats

It's not happening yet for Scunthorpe United on their National League travels, with zero points from their first 3 away games. Maybe today will be different? It's looking increasingly bleak for Scunthorpe United who now has to deal with a six game losing streak. Yeovil Town was the last time a defeat was avoided.

Scunthorpe United are looking to quickly end their 324 minutes long goal drought in the National League.

This match can not go any worse than the previous one, the home defeat versus Boreham Wood with 0-2 on the scoreboard.

A 0-2 loss hosting Halifax Town before that.

We have checked recent matches where Scunthorpe United have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 13 games were 2 victories, 4 draws and 7 defeats.

A new game in only four days for Scunthorpe, the National League home match versus York City. Busy days.
