Maidstone United form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Maidstone United's two home games in the National League so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Gallagher Stadium.

Maidstone United faced defeat in their previous match, away at Wrexham (0-5). Maidstone United were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Ahead of that match, Maidstone lost 2-4 at home to Dorking Wanderers.

This is expected to be a close game, with Maidstone United perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Maidstone United as a small favourite), we find 7 games. Maidstone United has won 3 of these, drawn 0 and lost 4.

Maidstone United are traveling soon after this match as the National League match at Aldershot Town awaits in two days.

Torquay United form and stats

Torquay United are doing rather OK so far in their away games in the National League, having played 2 games and collected 3 points (1 win, 0 draws and 1 loss).

Torquay aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 225 league minutes without a goal. McGavin was the last player to find the net.

Torquay United might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Boreham Wood proved too strong as Torquay United slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at Plainmoor Ground.

Prior to that match, the Torquay manager Johnson faced defeat when travelling to Bromley and losing 0-1.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 11 similar matches played by Torquay United in our archives, and the results are: 5 wins for Torquay United, 3 draws and 3 defeats.

A new game in only two days for Torquay, the National League home match versus Woking. Busy days.

1 goal so far away for Torquay United, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 1. All from 2 league matches away.
