Crawley Town form and stats

Last season, Crawley Town's league statistics were 17 wins, 10 draws and 19 losses, ending with 12th place in the League Two. From these 46 matches they scored 56 goals and gave away 66. Performing at their own stadium in the former season Crawley Town managed 9-6-8 (win-draw-lost) with 28 goals and 29 conceded.

In their previous game, the manager Betsy led his Crawley Town to a defeat away at Carlisle United. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Broadfield Stadium. Conroy, defender, was given a rating of 7.45/10 in that game, top of the team. Conroy won 8 of 9 duels.

Before that, Crawley Town played out a draw 3-3 when visiting Oldham Athletic.

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 Crawley Town have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 14 matches with the results: Won 4, drawn 3 and lost 7.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Carabao Cup game versus Bristol Rovers in only three days. This game is also played here at Broadfield Stadium.

Leyton Orient form and stats

Let's have a look at how Leyton Orient performed last season in the League Two: They landed a 13th position in the league table after playing out 14 victories, 16 draws and 16 defeats. In total they scored 62 and conceded 47 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 5 - drew 11 and lost 7 with 26/25 goals scored/conceded.

Leyton go into this game after a win, the home game against Grimsby Town that ended 2-0. That win felt sweet as this team had gone four league matches without victory. Leyton Orient goalie Vigouroux was high and low in the Grimsby Town game, contributing six saves towards the victory. Vigouroux (goalkeeper) was the best performer with a rating of 8.32. Vigouroux topped it up with a clean sheet.

A 0-1 loss hosting Tranmere Rovers before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Leyton playing away and similar expectations, we found 20 relevant matches. Results were 3 Leyton Orient wins, 9 draws and 8 defeats.

Leyton Orient have another fixture away in just three sleeps, a Carabao Cup fixture versus Forest Green Rovers. A gruelling diary for the guests!

Head 2 Head
