Non League Div One: Northern Midlands: We're looking at an absorbing and key battle involving Gresley and Dereham Town at The Moat Ground. Both need the points!
- Gresley have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
- Dereham Town have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored away.
We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!
Gresley form and stats
The story so far in the Non League Div One: Northern Midlands for Gresley at their home stadium (The Moat Ground) is 3 wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Gresley with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Loughborough Dynamo game, 35 days ago, have they avoided a loss.
Gresley lost their last game at Leicester Road (placed 13th) after a 0-4 scoreline. As you see from the result above, Gresley suffered greatly in their last game. Thankfully the team has a new chance to prove themselves in this one.
Preceding that match was a defeat to Spalding United (0-2).The Gresley fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 11 in 10 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Gresley defense is not exactly impregnable. 16 goals conceded from 10 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above. Gresley has at home met teams with this table position (low), three times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 2 of 3 times.
Dereham Town form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Dereham Town so far with only 4 points returning home. The records show 1-1-6 (win-draw-lose). Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Dereham Town's last three away games as they have all been lost.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Dereham Town, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 0-5 versus Sporting Khalsa (placed 4th). Dereham lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-5 beating and focus on this one.
Before that, Dereham Town secured a home win against Harborough Town with the score 3-2.Observe that 9 of this side's 11 most recent league rounds have ended with three goals or more.
The visitors have scored 6 goals from 8 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The opposition has been scoring high and low on Dereham Town's goalkeeper in away games this season, as they have let in 23 goals in 8 travels. It's worth mentioning that 12 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
Head 2 Head
As it happens, the last time Dereham Town kept a "clean sheet" was also versus this opposition, twelve league matches ago (Dereham - Gresley 2-0).
