Lewes form and stats

The home supporters can't complain about results here at The Dripping Pan as Lewes have scored 27 goals to get 29 points from 13 games. The overall stats in the Non League Premier: Isthmian are 8-5-0 (wins-draws-losses). Lewes has won so many consecutive home games (four in a row) that they struggle to remember the last time points were lost here at The Dripping Pan. We remember; it was Bowers & Pitsea.

It's back home for Lewes, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Bowers & Pitsea away with the result 3-2.

Ahead of that match, Lewes won a home game hosting Kingstonian (3-0).

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Lewes have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 9 games) they have won 4 times, drawn 3 and lost 2.

Scoring bonanza? Who knows about this one, but we do know that 12 of the 13 most recent league games with this side has had at least three goals.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Lewes as they are travelling to their away game against Aveley in the Non League Premier: Isthmian. That match is four days after this one.

Goals decide football matches and Lewes are scoring many of them at home; 27 on target from 13 league matches.

There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 0 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.
