Alfreton Town form and stats

In the preceding match a 2-1 victory visiting Coalville Town.

This is expected to be a close game, with Alfreton Town perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Alfreton Town as a small favourite), we find eleven games. Alfreton has won two of these, drawn five and lost four.

The manager B. Heath will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to United of Manchester in only three days.

Last season, Alfreton Town's league statistics were 12 wins, 4 draws and 16 losses, resulting in a 14th position in the Vanarama National League North. Over these 32 matches they scored 48 goals and conceded 55. Playing at home last season Alfreton Town managed 7-3-6 (win-draw-lost) with 31 goals and 24 conceded.
