Aldershot Town are welcoming Yeovil Town for another important game after their 1-3 result against 2nd-placed Sutton United.

Insights:
  • Aldershot Town have played more matches over 2,5 goals home than away.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the National League. That game, against Wrexham, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Yeovil Town.

Yeovil are still fighting for the big positions at the top of the table.

Aldershot Town form and stats

Overall National League stats at home this season for Aldershot Town are 7-3-7 (wins-draw-losses).

The fans are hoping that Aldershot will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 1-3 away loss in the National League game against Sutton United (placed 2nd). Heartbreak before that as Aldershot lost 1-2 at Torquay United's place.

This is expected to be a close game, with Aldershot Town perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Aldershot as a small favourite), we find 13 games. Aldershot Town has won six of these, drawn three and lost four.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Aldershot, as the National League home game vs Hartlepool United is only four days away.

Yeovil Town form and stats

There's been little loot from Yeovil Town's travels as they have only collected 19 points from 19 away games in the National League. Yeovil Town only have 5 wins to counter their 10 defeats and 4 draws.

Yeovil aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 247 league minutes without a goal. J. Quigley was the last player to find the net.

Preceding that, the 0-3 home loss versus Halifax Town.

Yeovil did not look prepared in the first half against Wrexham and lost the game during the first 45 minutes. They need to evaluate their pre-match routine before this one.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found nine similar matches played by Yeovil Town in our archives, and the results are: one win for Yeovil Town, four draws and four defeats.

A quick return to home after this game, as Yeovil are hosting King's Lynn Town in the National League only four days away.
