Yeovil Town and Bromley have both delivered a "par" performance so far this season, to use a golf phrase. The teams both occupy mid-table spots in the National League.

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Yeovil Town form and stats

4-5-7 (win-draw-lost) are the National League numbers at home for Yeovil Town so far this season. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Yeovil, their manager Sarll and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

Yeovil Town enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Dover Athletic's place. The match ended 2-0 with Barclay and Gorman scoring.

Ahead of that match, Yeovil Town lost 0-2 at home to Grimsby Town.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Yeovil have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 14 matches with the results: Won seven, drawn one and lost six.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Yeovil Town as they have a new game in only four days, a National League match thankfully also at home. Southend United are visiting.

Yeovil aren't scoring a lot here at Huish Park Stadium in the league, with only 12 goals from 16 games. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Yeovil Town's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 19 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Bromley form and stats

Playing away, Bromley have won 5 games, drawn 5 and suffered 5 defeats in the National League this season.

Bromley have been frustrated by their lack of goals lately, as they haven't scored in the league since they found the net 285 minutes ago. Cheek was the goal scorer.

Bromley delivered a 0-0 draw playing at home against Wrexham (placed 4th) in their previous fixture.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Halifax Town wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found seven similar matches played by Bromley in our archives, and the results are: four wins for Bromley, zero draws and three defeats.

The schedule is very tough for Bromley now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A National League game at Wealdstone is waiting in only four days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Bromley have scored 17 goals in 15 league games away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. 19 goals have been conceded by Bromley in these games.

Head 2 Head

The two teams in this fixture also met each other previously this season: Bromley - Yeovil 1-2. Head to head statistics (for the former six meetings): Yeovil Town won four games, one match ended with a draw and Bromley got one win. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: four / two The matches between these clubs sometimes lean towards being hot-tempered, having seen 3 sending-offs from the last six encounters.
