Burton Albion form and stats
4-2-3 (win-draw-lost) are the League One numbers at home for Burton Albion so far this season. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Burton with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Fleetwood Town game, 35 days ago, have they avoided a loss.
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 280 minutes without scoring a league goal. C. Lakin was the last player to find the net.
The fans are hoping that Burton Albion will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the League One game against Milton Keynes Dons (placed 5th). Defender Michael Bostwick got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.43/10. Bostwick won 3 of 3 duels.
Ahead of that match, Burton lost 0-1 at home to Charlton Athletic.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 Burton Albion have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found seven games) they have won zero times, drawn four and lost three.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Doncaster Rovers are coming to town in four days.
The Burton fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 9 matches. Burton's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 12 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 home matches.
Accrington Stanley form and stats
Accrington Stanley have only collected 8 points from their away games in the League One, after 2-2-5 (9 played).
The manager J. Coleman was unhappy after their last game, a League One match played at their home ground Wham Stadium. Accrington Stanley suffered a 2-3 loss to Sheffield Wednesday (placed 7th). Defender Ross Sykes was the best team player with a rating of 7.4. Sykes served one assist, hit one key pass and won 12 of 19 duels.
The game before that, was lost at home, a 1-4 defeat against Plymouth Argyle.Accrington are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is four wins, four draws and seven defeats. From a total of 15 matches.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The League One trip to Lincoln City.
Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Accrington have scored 10 goals in 9 league games away. Accrington have conceded 17 goals in these games.
