Witton Albion form and stats

Witton Albion's struggle is real here at Wincham Park Stadium with only 20 points collected from 20 Non League Premier: Northern games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 6-2-12. When Witton Albion hosts teams that live in the bottom of the table (like Atherton Collieries, Stalybridge Celtic, Witton Albion, Grantham Town, Gainsborough Trinity, Radcliffe Borough and Hyde United), they have won 3 of 6 matches! The opportunity of a proper winning streak is there for the hosts, with two straight wins here at Wincham Park Stadium.

In their previous game, the manager Macauley led his Witton Albion to a defeat away at Warrington Town. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Wincham Park Stadium.

The Witton fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 23 in 20 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 37 goals have been conceded.
