Barton Rovers form and stats

The visitors are W2-D2-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Non League Div One: Southern Central. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Barton, as they have won on their previous two travels.

It's the second away game in a row for Barton, but there's smiles all around after the 5-1 victory versus Waltham Abbey (placed 12th) in the Non League Div One: Southern Central last time out. As mentioned above, Barton was the only team on the pitch versus Waltham Abbey in their previous game, winning 5-1. This could be a tougher task.

Preceding that, the 0-3 home loss versus FC Romania.

The schedule is very tough for Barton Rovers now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Non League Div One: Southern Central game at Biggleswade is waiting in only four days.

With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Barton Rovers are regular goalscorers on their travels. For Barton, more than two goals on average per game end up in their own net.

Head 2 Head
