Exeter City form and stats

Last season, Exeter City's league statistics were 18 wins, 16 draws and 12 losses, resulting in a 9th position in the League Two. Over these 46 matches they scored 71 goals and conceded 50. Playing at home last season Exeter City managed 11-7-5 (win-draw-lost) with 38 goals and 20 conceded.

This is expected to be a close game, with Exeter perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Exeter City as a small favourite), we find ten games. Exeter City has won five of these, drawn two and lost three.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Wycombe Wanderers are coming to town in three days.

It's been an intense period of training leading up to this game for Exeter City, who have participated in seven training matches. Exeter City have won 3 of these, drawn 1 and were beaten in 3 games.

Bradford City form and stats

Let's have a look at how Bradford City performed last season in the League Two: They landed a 15th position in the league table after playing out 16 victories, 11 draws and 19 defeats. In total they scored 48 and conceded 53 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 7 - drew 4 and lost 12 with 26/34 goals scored/conceded.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 15 similar matches played by Bradford City in our archives, and the results are: three wins for Bradford, two draws and ten defeats.

The schedule is very tough for Bradford now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Carabao Cup game at Nottingham Forest is waiting in only four days.

It's a day of discovery for Bradford City as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Bradford City have played seven with the results W6-D0-L1 (win-draw-lost). In these games Bradford City has scored 17 goals and conceded 4 times.

Head 2 Head

Head-2-head stats last seven meetings: four - one - two (Exeter wins - draws - Bradford City wins). As for goals, four matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), three had two or less.
