Another interesting game in the Non League Premier: Northern. Ashton United is in the 9th position after playing two matches. They welcome Bamber Bridge who are placed 13th after one games.

Ashton have less rest than Bamber Bridge in this fixture, as the hosts were involved in a FA Cup game only three days ago. Thankfully the previous game, versus South Shields, was also a home game here at Hurst Cross. The away team is better rested.

Ashton United form and stats

The first Non League Premier: Northern game here at Hurst Cross resulted in a draw. Last season Ashton United's home game statistics were 6 victories, 3 draws and 6 defeats from 15 games.

The Ashton fans got no joy from their last match, a FA Cup game also here at Hurst Cross: A 0-4 defeat against South Shields (placed 6th). Before that, Ashton drew at home versus South Shields.

Ashton 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.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Ashton United as they are travelling to their away game against Matlock Town in the Non League Premier: Northern. That match is four days after this one.

Early season league goal statistics from Ashton United's 1 home game: 3 goals, 3 conceded.
