League Two: Top-drawer against modest, at least based on the league table. Exeter City - Oldham Athletic. Home win or a surprise?
- Exeter City have not yet lost a game at home.
- Oldham Athletic have the fewest scored goals in the first half (2) in League Two
It's no vacation for neither Exeter 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.
Exeter City form and stats
Exeter City have collected 13 points from their League Two home games so far after 3-4-0. Exeter has a nice streak going on as they have played 13 consecutive leaguegames without losing (regardless of home/away). They are keen to extend their tally, a streak that began after the Leyton Orient defeat 91 days ago.
Exeter City's last game was hosting Bristol Rovers (placed 16th) and winning 5-3. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?
Before that, Exeter City played out a FA Cup draw 1-1 when visiting Bradford City.There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Exeter, as the FA Cup home game vs Bradford City is only three days away.
A decent goal production from Exeter City in their home games so far, with 12 goals from 7 league matches. From these home matches, Exeter have conceded only 6 goals.
Oldham Athletic form and stats
The visitors are W2-D2-L3 on the road this term. That's in the League Two. Oldham has drawn their two previous away games.
It might be tough going out on the road again for Oldham, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 2-3 versus Tranmere Rovers (placed 11th). A huge disappointment for Oldham in their last match (vs Tranmere Rovers). Leading 2-0 the victory seemed almost certain, but a fascinating collapse turned everything around and in the end all was lost in a 2-3 defeat.
Ahead of that match was the FA Cup away draw versus Ipswich Town that ended 1-1.The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Ipswich Town in just three days.
The visitors have scored 4 goals from 7 away games in the league, an average of less than one per game. 8 goals have been conceded by Oldham in these games.
