Tonbridge Angels form and stats

Tonbridge Angels's first Vanarama National League South home game here at Longmead Stadium ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 9 wins, 7 draws and 7 defeats from 23 matches.

Stress levels are on the rise for Tonbridge's attacking players as they have now played 225 minutes without scoring in a league game. Greenidge was their last goal scorer.

The Tonbridge Angels fans got no joy from their last match, also played here at Longmead Stadium: A 0-1 defeat against Weston-super-Mare (placed 4th).

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Worthing (0-1).

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 Tonbridge Angels have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 8 games) they have won 1 time, drawn 2 and lost 5.

The manager Saunders will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Chippenham Town in only four days.

Tonbridge Angels has scored {0 goals} so far and conceded {1 goals} from 1 home game. These are numbers from the league only.

Dover Athletic form and stats

A perfect away game record so far for the visitors in the Vanarama National League South, but they have only played once. Last season their away game stats were 5 wins, 6 draws and 12 defeats from 23 matches.

Two trips in a row for Dover, whose manager Brundle could celebrate last time after the win against Slough Town. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Brundle when Baptiste scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 78th minute.

A 2-2 draw was the result before that, hosting Torquay United.

Dover Athletic are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 4 wins, 5 draws and 1 defeat. From a total of 10 matches.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Braintree Town in just four days.

{2 goals} so far away for Dover Athletic, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 1 league match away.

Head 2 Head

Stats for the former ten meetings featuring these two contenders are: four wins for Tonbridge Angels, one draw and five wins for Dover Athletic. Over 2,5 goals: seven times; under 2,5 goals: three games.
