Venue: ProEdge Westwood (2000 seats)

Season ticket holders at ProEdge Westwood haven’t seen too many victories this season, with St Ives Town languishing in the 17th position so far. The guesting Royston Town will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only three days ago in the FA Cup.

St Ives Town form and stats

2 victories, 1 draw and 3 defeats. That’s what St Ives Town have to build on here at ProEdge Westwood in the Non League Premier: Southern.

The home team returns to ProEdge Westwood after sharing the points with Leiston (placed 22nd) on their last time out; the Non League Premier: Southern game ended 4-4. Ahead of that match, St Ives Town lost 0-3 at home to Peterborough Sports.

Trouble was brewing at the score 0-2 against Leiston last time out, but a goal from M. Foy completed a comeback to a draw result for St Ives Town. A goal frenzy last time out for St Ives Town, with a total of 8 goals in the match against Leiston. Fun stuff to watch!

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 St Ives Town have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found two games) they have won 2 times, drawn 0 and lost 0.

The match schedule is unforgiving for St Ives Town as they have a new game in only four days, a Fa Trophy match thankfully also at home. Soham Town Rangers are visiting.

The St Ives Town fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 6 in 6 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the St Ives Town defense is not exactly impregnable. 9 goals conceded from 6 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

Playing away, Royston Town have won 2 games, drawn 1 and suffered 2 defeats in the Non League Premier: Southern this season.

Royston Town failed to get anything from their last game, a FA Cup home match vs Maldon & Tiptree that ended with defeat 1-3. A draw for Royston Town before that, at their own venue hosting Hitchin Town (1-1).

Royston Town are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats. From a total of seven matches.

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