Accrington Stanley form and stats

The visitors' first away game in the League One ended in defeat. Last season Accrington Stanley had these away match statistics: Played 18; won 3, drew 8 and lost 7.

Accrington might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Oxford United proved too strong as Accrington Stanley slumped to a 1-4 defeat in front of their own fans at Wham Stadium. A 1-2 defeat away at Burton Albion before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Accrington playing away and similar expectations, we found twelve relevant matches. Results were two Accrington Stanley wins, four draws and six defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Accrington Stanley are hosting Blackpool in the EFL Trophy only three days away.

Accrington Stanley have the goal stats of 1-2 (for/against) from 1 business trip in the league at this early stage of the season.
