It's no vacation for neither Crawley nor Oldham Athletic as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Crawley Town form and stats
When playing at home in the League Two, Crawley Town have managed 9 wins, 5 draws and suffered 5 defeats from 19 games.
Times are rough for the home team, having gone 225 minutes without scoring a league goal. A. Nadesan was the last player to find the net.
The home team returns to The People's Pension Stadium after being equal after 90 minutes with Scunthorpe United (placed 17th) on their last time out; the League Two game ended 0-0. Heartbreak before that as Crawley lost 0-2 at Carlisle United's place.
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 Crawley have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found seven games) they have won two times, drawn three and lost two.
The Crawley fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 27 in 19 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 3 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. 19 goals have been conceded.
Oldham Athletic form and stats
7 wins, 7 draws and 5 losses. That’s the product of Oldham Athletic, who have the most conceded goals (65) in League Two, playing as the away team in the League Two this season.
Home advantage was not enough for Oldham Athletic in their previous game, as they lost their League Two-match, hosting Stevenage, 0-1. A 1-2 defeat away at Leyton Orient before that.
Oldham Athletic goalkeeper Laurie Walker had a great day against Stevenage, but despite making six saves the loss could not be avoided.
Oldham Athletic are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is six wins, seven draws and five defeats. From a total of 18 matches.
A new game in only four days for Oldham, the League Two home match versus Colchester United. Busy days.

It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 2 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Oldham's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 30 goals from these trips. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 3 of these goals has been conceded in their last 3 away matches.
