Marine form and stats

Marine's struggle is real here at The Marine Travel Arena with only 17 points collected from 19 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly 4-5-10. It's been an uphill battle for Marine in their home games for quite some time now, as four matches in a row are lost here. Not since the Mickleover Sports game have they avoided the disappointment of defeat. With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Marine to get some points in this home game.

The Marine crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-3 to Matlock Town here at The Marine Travel Arena in a Non League Premier: Northern match. A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Whitby Town.

Marine are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home, having created 20 goals in 19 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 29 goals have been conceded.
