Redditch United form and stats

The season before, Redditch United's league stats were 11 wins, 12 draws and 17 losses, providing 15th spot in the Non League Premier: Southern Central. In these 40 matches they scored 38 goals and gave away 50. Performing at their own stadium in the previous season Redditch United managed 7-5-8 (win-draw-lost) with 23 goals and 26 conceded.

The Redditch United goalkeeper is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 273 minutes without conceding a goal in the Non League Premier: Southern Central.

Redditch are returning here after visiting Hednesford Town and winning with a 1-0 scoreline.

0-0 away at Biggleswade Town before that.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Redditch United have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 7 games) they have won 4 times, drawn 2 and lost 1.

There's a new fixture coming up fairly quickly for Redditch United, as the Non League Premier: Southern Central home game vs Stratford Town is only two days away.

Kings Langley form and stats

In total they scored 49 and conceded 68 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 4 - drew 4 and lost 13 with 18/41 goals scored/conceded.

There were no winners in Langley's previous match, the home game that ended 2-2 vs Mickleover Sports (placed 9th).

That result followed a home victory 4-2 versus Hendon in the Non League Premier: Southern South.

Kings Langley are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 4 draws and 7 defeats. From a total of 12 matches.
