Salisbury form and stats

Playing away, Salisbury have won 3 games, drawn 5 and suffered 4 defeats in the Non League Premier: Southern this season.

It might be tough going out on the road again for Salisbury, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 2-3 versus Metropolitan Police FC (placed 10th). Ahead of that game was the 2-2 draw at home against Tiverton Town.

Salisbury were so close to getting something from the game against Metropolitan Police FC, but ended up with egg all over their face after conceding the deciding goal five minutes into overtime.

Salisbury are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is zero wins, one draw and zero defeats. From a total of one match.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Salisbury manager S. Claridge as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Taunton Town.

With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Salisbury are regular goalscorers on their travels. Salisbury have conceded 19 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

These teams' last encounter with each other was the Salisbury - Poole Town 2-1 earlier this season. Head-2-head stats last four meetings: two - one - one (Poole Town wins - draws - Salisbury wins). As for goals, three matches ended with three or more goals (over 2,5), one had two or less.
