Halifax Town form and stats

In the previous season, Halifax Town's league stats were 19 wins, 8 draws and 15 losses, providing 10th place in the National League. Over these 42 matches they scored 63 goals and let in 54. Performing at home in the previous season Halifax Town managed 9-4-8 (win-draw-lost) with 33 goals and 30 conceded.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Halifax Town have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found nine games) they have won three times, drawn one and lost five.

With the first game of the season soon underway, it's time to look at the results from the Halifax Town friendly games in pre-season: Halifax played three friendlies, won 1, drew 1 and lost 1. If you are really into statistics you might appreciate knowing that Halifax Town scored 2 goals and conceded 4 in these three games.

Maidenhead United form and stats

Let's have a look at how Maidenhead United performed last season in the National League: They landed a 13th position in the league table after playing out 15 victories, 11 draws and 16 defeats. In total they scored 62 and conceded 60 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 8 - drew 7 and lost 6 with 32/26 goals scored/conceded.

We have checked recent matches where Maidenhead have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 19 games were six victories, six draws and seven defeats.

It's a day of discovery for Maidenhead United as they finally learn what impact all the hours of pre-season training, along with the changes in personnel, have had on their performance in an official game. It's never easy knowing what to expect based on friendly games, of which Maidenhead have played three with the results W1-D1-L1 (win-draw-lost). In these games Maidenhead United has scored 8 goals and conceded 3 times.

Head 2 Head

Previous nine meetings featuring these contenders: Halifax won four, Maidenhead United were winners in four and we saw one draw. six games with more than 2,5 goals, three matches with two goals or less.
