York City form and stats

5 victories, 5 draws and 7 defeats. That’s what York City have to build on here at Bootham Crescent in the National League.

York's previous fixture was also a home event, the loss 1-2 against Altrincham (in Fa Trophy).

In the game before, an away victory in the National League match versus Bromley with a 3-0 scoreline.

The bookmakers consider this a fairly even contest. One could say only the home advantage separates the teams. It could be relevant to look at how York City have performed in matches similar to this (as small favourites). Our database has found 6 matches with the results: Won 2, drawn 1 and lost 3.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the National League game versus Dorking Wanderers in only four days. This game is also played here at Bootham Crescent.

York City are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 21 goals in 17 games. 24 goals have been conceded.

Altrincham form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Altrincham so far with only 16 points returning home. The records show 3-7-8 (win-draw-lose). The travelling fans think it's time that their travel expenses are covered with some points now, as Altrincham have lost on their last two travels.

Jones was the last player to score for the away team. Altrincham haven't scored a league goal in the last 248 minutes.

Two trips in a row for Altrincham, whose manager Parkinson could celebrate last time after the Fa Trophy win against York City.

A 0-2 defeat away at Scunthorpe United before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Altrincham playing away and similar expectations, we found 7 relevant matches. Results were 1 Altrincham win, 5 draws and 1 defeat.

Goal hungry football fans should note that 12 of this club's 16 latest league games have ended with three goals or more.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The National League trip to Eastleigh.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Altrincham have scored 24 goals in 18 league games away. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Altrincham manager Parkinson has some worries about the defense as 41 goals have been conceded in these travels.

Head 2 Head

The 5 most recent matches featuring these opponents have all ended as Altrincham wins. More of the same or streak broken?

The squads have played each other previously this season, with the match result Altrincham - York 2-1 registered in the official records.
