Radcliffe Borough form and stats

In the previous season, Radcliffe Borough's league results were 15 wins, 6 draws and 21 losses, resulting in 16th spot in the Non League Premier: Northern. During these 42 matches they scored 56 goals and gave away 73. Appearing as the home side in the last season Radcliffe Borough delivered 10-1-10 (win-draw-lost) with 34 goals and 35 conceded.

The home team returns to Neuven Stadium after drawing with Hyde United (placed 10th) on their last time out; the game ended 1-1.

Previous to that game, a home match hosting Atherton Collieries in a game that was won 1-0.

This is expected to be a close game, with Radcliffe Borough perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Radcliffe Borough as a small favourite), we find 23 games. Radcliffe Borough has won 13 of these, drawn 3 and lost 7.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Radcliffe as they have a new game in only four days, a Non League Premier: Northern match thankfully also at home. Marske United are visiting.

Matlock Town form and stats

In total they scored 59 and conceded 36 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 11 - drew 4 and lost 6 with 28/21 goals scored/conceded.

Did you know that the longest clean sheet streak is 1816 minutes? This record is held by Mazaropi when he played in Vasco da Gama. Matlock Town goalkeeper is eager to challenge this, with his 253 minutes of keeping balls out from the net.

Impressive finishing secured the home win 1-0 against Whitby Town in their previous game.

That result followed a home victory 2-0 versus Warrington Town.

As mentioned above, this is an open game with no clear favourite. We have found 12 similar matches played by Matlock Town in our archives, and the results are: 5 wins for Matlock Town, 1 draw and 6 defeats.

Matlock have another match away from home in just four days, a Non League Premier: Northern match versus Morpeth Town. A grim timetable for the visiting team!
