The visitors are W4-D4-L7 on the road this term. That's in the National League. The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Yeovil have lost on their last two travels.

Home advantage was not enough for Yeovil Town in their previous game, as they lost their National League-match, hosting Bromley, 1-2. That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Woking.

Yeovil Town were so close to getting something from the game against Bromley, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal four minutes into overtime.

Yeovil are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is four wins, one draw and seven defeats. From a total of twelve matches.
