Accrington Stanley's last game ended in a draw, the home match versus Burton Albion that finished 4-4. Accrington's last match (vs Burton Albion) ended in drama as all points looked lost at the score 0-3. They did not give up, fought back and in the end a courageous finish rescued a draw after 90 minutes thanks to a 90th minute equalizer by Longelo. The draw against Burton Albion came from a losing position. The Accrington Stanley manager Coleman brought on Longelo as a substitute and the player scored to make the scores level. Midfield player McConville was the top player of the team with a match rating of 8.64/10. McConville scored one goal, served one assist and hit three key passes.

Accrington Stanley are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 5 wins, 3 draws and 10 defeats. From a total of 18 matches.
