Wealdstone form and stats

Wealdstone have played 21 National League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 9-5-7 (wins-draws-losses). With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Wealdstone to get some points in this home game.

Wealdstone's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus Aldershot Town (placed 18th).

Heartbreak before that as Wealdstone lost 0-1 at Boreham Wood's place.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Solihull Moors are coming to town in three days.
