Harrogate Town form and stats

The story so far in the League Two for Harrogate Town at their home stadium (CNG Stadium) is 2 wins, 3 draws and 0 defeats. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points here at CNG Stadium, but a victory now would be sweet for Harrogate.

A nice win for Harrogate last time playing, versus Newcastle United U21. That was also a home game and the match ended 2-0 with L. Kerry and D. Orsi-Dadomo scoring for the victors.

In the preceding match a 2-1 victory visiting Oldham Athletic.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Harrogate Town's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played four games, won two matches, drawn one and lost one.

Scunthorpe aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 226 league minutes without a goal. E. Onariase was the last player to find the net.

Scunthorpe lost away at Rotherham United (1-4) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick.

Prior to that match, the Scunthorpe United manager N. Cox faced defeat when travelling to Newport County and losing 0-3.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day.
