League Two: The average league table placements shows the journey Bradford City and Crawley Town have taken so far. Both contenders are ready for the game; let's go!

Insights:
  • Bradford City have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.
  • Crawley Town haven’t played a single 0-0 game away.

There have been little to rest for the home team, as they performed in a League Two game only four days back. That game was an away game at Walsall, so at least Bradford City are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Bradford City form and stats

When playing at home in the League Two, Bradford City have managed 4 wins, 7 draws and suffered 1 defeat from 12 games.

Bradford City enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Walsall's place. The match ended 2-1 with Daly and Cook scoring.

A 0-0 draw away before that, with Rochdale the opponent.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Bradford City's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played two games, won one match, drawn one and lost zero.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Bradford City, as the League Two home game vs Leyton Orient is only three days away.

A decent goal production from Bradford City in their home games so far, with 19 goals from 12 league matches. On the other hand, Bradford City have conceded 14 goals.

Crawley Town form and stats

5 wins, 2 draws and 6 losses. That’s the product of Crawley Town playing as the away team in the League Two this season.

Crawley Town might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Tranmere Rovers proved too strong as Crawley slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at The People's Pension Stadium. Powell got a match rating of 7.34 in that game, top player of the team. Powell hit three key passes.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Stevenage wasn't a success with a 1-2 loss.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Crawley Town playing away, we found seven games. Results were two away wins, two draws and three home wins.

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

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Crawley Town have scored 14 goals in 13 league games away. Crawley Town have conceded 17 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Crawley Town - Bradford City 2-1 was the score in these contenders' previous head to head match, earlier this season. H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Bradford City four wins, one draw and Crawley Town five victories.
