Boreham Wood form and stats

2-4-3 (win-draw-lost) are the National League numbers at home for Boreham Wood so far this season. Boreham Wood has three losses from their three previous games and the tension is increasing in the dressing room for both the manager Garrard and the players.

Boreham Wood are anxiously hoping for a goal as it's been 310 minutes since the last one in league fixtures. (Scored by Fyfield).

Boreham faced defeat in their previous match, away at Eastleigh (0-1). It's strange, but the exact score 0-1 has been on "repeat" three league games in a row.

Before that, a fine away victory at Bristol Rovers. A FA Cup match. 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 Boreham Wood have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 10 games) they have won 5 times, drawn 4 and lost 1.

Not much happening? Looking at this team's last 14 league matches, 12 have seen two goals or less.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the National League game versus Southend United in only four days. This game is also played here at Meadow Park.

The Boreham Wood fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 9 matches. Boreham's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 11 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Oldham Athletic form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Oldham Athletic so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 0-4-6 (win-draw-lose). The loyal fans travelling with their beloved Oldham Athletic have enjoyed the stadium food more than the matches as the visitors have gone ten consecutive matches without winning on the road.

Oldham Athletic lost away at Solihull Moors (1-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.

A 0-0 draw at Maidstone United's stadium before that.

Oldham are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 3 wins, 6 draws and 11 defeats. From a total of 20 matches.

There's been a serious shortage of goals from Oldham Athletic's away games in the league this season with only {4 goals} from 10 matches. It's worth mentioning that 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 14 goals have been conceded by Oldham Athletic in these games.
