Perfect League One season at home so far for Accrington Stanley 2 wins from 2 appearances.

Accrington drew their last game, also a home match. Barrow was the opponent, 2-2 the score.

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

Shrewsbury Town form and stats

No League One points yet away for Shrewsbury Town, from their first 2 matches. With two straight losses from their last two away games, Shrewsbury are hoping that it's time for some travel points again.

Home advantage was not enough for Shrewsbury in their previous game, as they lost their EFL Trophy-match, hosting Crewe Alexandra, 0-1. Shrewsbury Town were so close to getting something from the game against Crewe Alexandra, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal two minutes into overtime.

Prior to that match, a home win 2-1 against Gillingham in the League One.

We have checked recent matches where Shrewsbury have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those twelve games were four victories, four draws and four defeats.

It's early days yet, but Shrewsbury Town has scored 0 and conceded 3 goals from their travels in the league so far (2 games).

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings with these sides: Accrington won two, Shrewsbury Town were winners in five and we saw three draws. five games with over 2,5 goals, five matches with two goals or less.
