Sutton United have travelled here for an engaging game versus the hosts Crewe Alexandra. Read up on the fixture with this in-depth League Two preview!
- Crewe Alexandra have the most scored goals in the first half (4) in League Two
- Sutton United have the most dropped points from leading position (5) in League Two
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Alexandra and Sutton United.
Crewe Alexandra form and stats
Crewe Alexandra have only played one League Two game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 5 wins, 5 draws and 13 defeats from 23 matches.
The fans are hoping that Crewe Alexandra will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 0-3 away loss in the match against Salford City (placed 3rd).
This is expected to be a close game, with Crewe Alexandra perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Crewe Alexandra as a small favourite), we find 12 games. Alexandra has won 7 of these, drawn 3 and lost 2.
The match schedule is unforgiving for Crewe Alexandra as they have a new game in only four days, a League Two match thankfully also at home. Northampton Town are visiting.
It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Crewe Alexandra at home in the league. 3 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
Sutton United form and stats
The visitors' first away game in the League Two ended in defeat. Last season Sutton United had these away match statistics: Played 23; won 8, drew 5 and lost 10.
Fadahunsi scored in Sutton United's previous match, the home game against Barrow that ended 1-0. World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager Gray when Fadahunsi scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 72nd minute. Midfielder Beautyman was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.41. Beautyman hit one key pass.
So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Sutton United playing away and similar expectations, we found 13 relevant matches. Results were 2 Sutton United wins, 4 draws and 7 defeats.
The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The League Two trip to Grimsby Town.
1 goal so far away for Sutton United, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 2. All from 1 league match away.
