AFC Wimbledon form and stats

4 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses. That’s the product of AFC Wimbledon playing as the away team in the League Two this season.

There might be some fixture complaints from AFC Wimbledon as they are again playing away from home after losing on the road in their previous game, 1-2 against Sutton United. That loss stopped this club's string of league fixtures in a row without losing; ten games in all! AFC Wimbledon goalkeeper Tzanev took pride in a brilliant day's work versus Sutton United, but despite managing seven saves the beating could not be evaded.

Ahead of that match was the victory versus Colchester United at their stadium, the result 2-1.

Wimbledon have a decent goal production going in their away games, although not fantastic. In 13 league away games 15 goals have been scored. As opposed to that, AFC Wimbledon have seen the ball go into their own net 17 times on the road.
