Barrow form and stats

Barrow have played 18 League Two games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 9-3-6 (wins-draws-losses). Barrow have played two draws in a row on their own stadium.

Waters was the last player to score a league goal for Barrow and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Barrow haven't scored in 248 minutes.

The regulars are hoping that Barrow will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-1 away loss in the game against Harrogate Town (after extra-time) (placed 19th). The first setback in the shape of a loss after going unbeaten in five league fixtures. Defender Ray got the top score of the team in the match with a rating of 7.75/10. Ray won 12 of 14 duels.

Before that, Barrow drew at home versus Sutton United (after extra-time).

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how Barrow have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 17 matches with the results: Won 4, drawn 6 and lost 7.

It should be taken into account that a look at the 12 latest league games reveals that 9 of them qualified as a both teams not to score result (only one or none of the sides scored a goal).

Barrow has scored 21 league goals at home this season, in 18 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. From these home matches, Barrow have conceded only 15 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

AFC Wimbledon form and stats

There's been little loot from AFC Wimbledon's travels as they have only collected 19 points from 19 away games in the League Two. AFC Wimbledon only have 4 wins to counter their 8 defeats and 7 draws.

Home advantage was not enough for AFC Wimbledon in their previous game as they lost hosting Crawley Town (after extra-time), 0-1. Currie was the top performer of the team in that game with a match score of 7.31. The defender Currie won 7 of 10 duels.

Preceding that game, the 1-1 draw paying a visit to Newport County (after extra-time).

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with AFC Wimbledon playing away and similar expectations, we found 12 relevant matches. Results were 3 AFC Wimbledon wins, 3 draws and 6 defeats.

After this away game Wimbledon return home for a League Two game against Walsall. That game is only three sleeps after this.

The attacking power of AFC Wimbledon when travelling is not overwhelming with 18 goals scored from 19 league matches away. As opposed to that, AFC Wimbledon have seen the ball go into their own net 23 times on the road.
