Crewe Alexandra form and stats

Crewe Alexandra's results here at Alexandra Stadium in the League One have been very modest with 2 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats.

Alexandra's last game was hosting Doncaster Rovers (placed 23rd) and winning 2-0.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Ipswich Town (1-2).

The match schedule is unforgiving for Alexandra as they have a new game in only four days, a League One match thankfully also at home. Sheffield Wednesday are visiting.

Crewe Alexandra are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 9 games. Crewe Alexandra have conceded 16 from these games. Crewe Alexandra has at home met teams with this table position (low), three times. It has ended with less than 2.5 goals 2 of 3 times.

Lincoln City form and stats

As the visiting team in League One matches, Lincoln City have produced an overall stat of 3-3-3 so far.

Lincoln are looking to quickly end their 317 minutes long goal drought in the League One.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a FA Cup home defeat versus Hartlepool United with 0-1 on the scoreboard.

Before that, Lincoln travelled to Carlisle United (after extra-time, 4-3 on penalties) and returned home with a draw after the EFL Trophy game finished 1-1.

The schedule is very tough for Lincoln now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A League One game at Cheltenham Town is waiting in only four days.

Lincoln have scored 12 goals on their travels this season, from 9 away games in the league. As opposed to that, Lincoln have seen the ball go into their own net 11 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

Last ten meetings involving these sides: Alexandra won two, Lincoln City were winners in six and we saw two draws. six games with more than 2,5 goals, four matches with two goals or less.
