Crewe Alexandra form and stats

4 victories, 4 draws and 7 defeats. That’s what Crewe Alexandra have to build on here at Alexandra Stadium in the League One. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Crewe Alexandra with their six defeats in a row. Not since the Shrewsbury Town game, 35 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

Alexandra lost their last game at Wigan Athletic (placed 2nd) after a 0-2 scoreline.

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-4 away at Accrington Stanley.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the League One game versus Oxford United in only three days. This game is also played here at Alexandra Stadium.

Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 25 goals have been conceded.

Portsmouth form and stats

That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Burton Albion.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The League One trip to Shrewsbury Town.
