Whitby Town form and stats

9 victories, 1 draw and 7 defeats. That’s what Whitby Town has to build on here at Turnbull Ground. The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Turnbull Ground.

Happy days for Whitby Town in their previous game, a Non League Premier: Northern match away at Bamber Bridge (placed 18th) that ended with a 3-1 victory. Previous to that game, a home match hosting Basford United in a game that was won 4-1.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Whitby Town as they have a new game in only zero days, a Non League Premier: Northern match thankfully also at home. Workington are visiting.

A decent goal production from Whitby Town in their home games so far, with 27 goals from 17 matches. Whitby Town have only conceded 16 in these games.

Workington form and stats

The hunting on away grounds hasn’t been very fruitful for Workington so far with only 15 points returning home. The records show 4-3-10 (win-draw-lose). It's a growing despair in Workington as they have recorded three consecutive losses.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Workington, facing their second straight away game. Especially as that game, in the Non League Premier: Northern, ended a defeat 0-2 versus Farsley Celtic (placed 3rd). A 1-2 loss hosting Hyde United before that.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Workington as they have only managed to score 16 times from 17 away games. 25 goals have been conceded by Workington in these games.

Head 2 Head

Workington - Whitby Town 1-2 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Whitby Town won 5 games, 2 matches ended with a draw and Workington has 3 wins.
