Oxford United form and stats

The home fans haven’t been spoiled with victories in the League One this season. Oxford United have only managed 2 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses from their games here at The Kassam Stadium. Game days at The Kassam Stadium have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Oxford United as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

A good away victory last time out for Oxford, who won 3-1 against Bolton Wanderers (placed 6th). Midfield player Bate got a match rating of 8.33 in that game, the max score being 10. Bate signed up for two assists, hit four key passes and dribled past the opponent 2 of 2 times.

A 1-1 draw away before that, with Portsmouth the opponent.

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 Oxford United have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 9 games) they have won 4 times, drawn 0 and lost 5.

A fact related to the "Both teams to score yes/no" betting option: A review of the 12 latest league matches shows that 10 of them had goals from both sides.

9 goals have been conceded.

Fleetwood Town form and stats

The visitors are W2-D3-L2 on the road this term. That's in the League One.

The supporters enjoyed Fleetwood Town's previous match versus Accrington Stanley (placed 20th), a 3-0 win played at home. That win felt sweet as this team had gone four league games without winning. The attacker Gomes got a match rating of 8.83 in that game. Gomes scored one goal, signed up for two assists, hit three key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.

A 1-1 draw was the result before that, hosting Forest Green Rovers.

We have checked recent matches where Fleetwood Town have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 9 games were 1 victory, 3 draws and 5 defeats.

Lacking goals? 8 of this team's most recent 10 league fixtures have contained two goals or less.

A quick return to home after this game, as Fleetwood are hosting Oxford City in the FA Cup only four days away.

The visiting Fleetwood Town have scored more than one goal per away game in the league so far. The grand total is 8 goals from 7 games. Fleetwood Town have conceded 8 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Data for the last ten meetings between these two participants are: three wins for Oxford, one draw and six wins for Fleetwood Town. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: five games.
