Oldham Athletic form and stats

As the visiting team in League Two matches, Oldham Athletic, who have the fewest clean sheets (1) in League Two, have produced an overall stat of 6-3-3 so far.

Davis Keillor-Dunn and Dylan Bahamboula scored in Oldham Athletic's previous match, the home game against Salford City that ended 2-1. A 0-2 defeat away at Cheltenham Town before that.

World class coaching! That was the thoughts of manager H. Kewell when Davis Keillor-Dunn scored the winning goal after coming on as a substitute in the 63rd minute. The end of the last match, against Salford City, was very satisfying as Davis Keillor-Dunn scored the winning goal deep into overtime.

Oldham 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, five draws and five defeats. From a total of 16 matches.

Oldham has another fixture away, a League Two game, against Tranmere Rovers in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!

The travelling fans enjoy Oldham Athletic's attacking play in away games, having scored 20 goals in 12 league matches away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. Oldham's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 20 goals from these trips.

Head 2 Head
