Ashton United form and stats

The previous season, Ashton United's league results were 13 wins, 12 draws and 17 losses, ending with 15th spot in the Non League Premier: Northern. From these 42 matches they scored 50 goals and let in 59. Performing as the home team in the last season Ashton United generated 9-6-6 (win-draw-lost) with 26 goals and 22 conceded.

A good away victory last time out for Ashton United, who won 1-0 against Liversedge (placed 15th). A big relief, as that was the first league victory after going winless in six matches in a row.

Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Stafford Rangers (0-5).

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Non League Premier: Northern game versus Rylands in only four days. This game is also played here at Hurst Cross.

South Shields form and stats

Let's have a look at how South Shields performed last season in the Non League Premier: Northern: They landed a 2nd position in the league table after playing out 23 victories, 9 draws and 10 defeats.

Shields are travelling after their nice 2-0 home win in the match against Stalybridge Celtic (placed 20th).

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Grantham Town wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only four days as another away game awaits: The Non League Premier: Northern trip to Marine.
