Tranmere Rovers form and stats

Tranmere Rovers's first League Two home game here at Prenton Park ended in defeat. Last season their home statistics were 3 wins, 6 draws and 8 defeats from 17 matches. With eight home League Two games in a row without a win, the Tranmere fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the AFC Wimbledon game long ago, can be stopped today.

C. Jennings was the last player to score a league goal for Tranmere Rovers and it's becoming a more and more distant memory as Tranmere Rovers haven't scored in 241 minutes.

Tranmere shared the glory with Cambridge United in their last match, an away game that ended all square 0-0. Preceding that match was the home game against Cheltenham Town that was lost 0-3.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Tranmere Rovers at home in the league. 0 on target and 3 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
