York City form and stats

Still no away game victory in the National League for York City with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.

York City might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Eastleigh proved too strong as York City slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Bootham Crescent.

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus Solihull Moors that ended 1-1.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with York City playing away and similar expectations, we found 8 relevant matches. Results were 2 York City wins, 1 draw and 5 defeats.

After this away game York return home for a National League game against Oldham Athletic. That game is only two sleeps after this.

2 goals so far away for York City, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.
