Oldham Athletic form and stats

Oldham Athletic's first League Two home game here at Boundary Park ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 6 wins, 7 draws and 5 defeats from 18 matches.

Stress levels are on the rise for Oldham's attacking players as they have now played 277 minutes without scoring in a league game. J. Smith was their last goal scorer.

In their previous game, the manager H. Kewell led his Oldham Athletic to a defeat in the League Two match away at Stevenage. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Boundary Park. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Morecambe (0-1).

Ian Lawlor had a busy but productive day in the Stevenage match. Despite making nine saves the loss could not be prevented.

This is expected to be a close game, with Oldham Athletic perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Oldham Athletic as a small favourite), we find 16 games. Oldham Athletic has won five of these, drawn six and lost five.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Oldham Athletic at home in the league. 0 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
