There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the League Two table so far. Here's the Salford City - Crawley Town latest:

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Salford and Crawley Town.

Salford City form and stats

Three League Two home games done for Salford City, who are not happy collecting 3 points from these matches.

Salford's previous game was a League Two match also played at home, ending 3-0 versus Southend United (placed 24th). The home side are looking to build on that result. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Port Vale (0-1).

The hosts are favourites to win this game, with an estimated chance of about 55-60% of that outcome. Earlier Salford matches with similar probabilities have ended with one win, four draws and two defeats (from seven games).

The manager G. Alexander will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Scunthorpe United in only three days.

Salford City has scored 4 league goals at home this season, in 3 matches. Salford City have conceded 4 in these home matches.

Crawley Town form and stats

1 win, 0 draws and 3 losses. That’s the product of Crawley Town playing as the away team in the League Two this season. Crawley seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?

Crawley lost away at Exeter City (1-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Before that, Crawley secured a home win against Morecambe with the score 4-0.

Looking at the earlier recent performances of Crawley Town when being an outsider away as they are today, we find seven matches with the visitors losing three times, drawing three and winning one game.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Tranmere Rovers in just three days.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Crawley have scored 4 goals in 4 league games away. Crawley have conceded 8 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head totals (for the last two meetings): Salford City won zero games, one match ended with a draw and Crawley Town has one win. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: zero / two
