Oldham Athletic form and stats

The hosts won their first National League game here at Boundary Park, lifting spirits. Home statistics for Oldham Athletic last season were 11 wins, 6 draws and 6 losses from 23 games.

The Oldham Athletic club members enjoyed the previous fixture, watching their team host Aldershot Town and win 5-1. As mentioned above, Oldham Athletic "killed" Aldershot Town in their previous game. They need to reset completely for this one and beware of complacency.
