Banbury United form and stats

6 victories, 3 draws and 4 defeats. That’s what Banbury United have to build on here at The Spencer Stadium in the Vanarama National League North. Three consecutive losses here at The Spencer Stadium is hard to swallow for the home team. Both players, staff and the home crowd are desperate to get something from this match.

The Banbury United regulars got no joy from their last match, also played here at The Spencer Stadium: A 0-1 defeat against King's Lynn Town (placed 1st).

Before that match, a win away at Kidderminster Harriers.

The betting market estimate that the home team has about 55-60% chance of winning this match. There could be betting value if you think differently, so to help you here are the stats from Banbury United's earlier matches at home being 55%-60% favourite: Played 6 games, won 5 matches, drawn 0 and lost 1.

It should be considered that a glance at the 12 most recent league games shows that 9 of them qualified as a both teams not to score result (only one or none of the teams scored).

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Leamington are coming to town in three days.

The Banbury United fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 13 matches. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches.

Farsley Celtic form and stats

There's been little loot from Farsley Celtic's travels as they have only collected 13 points from 16 away games in the Vanarama National League North. Farsley Celtic only have 3 wins to counter their 9 defeats and 4 draws.

The attacking players of Farsley have been feeble for some time now, the team not scoring a league goal in the last 234 minutes. Farsley Celtic have succeeded in guarding their own goal lately, led by their goalkeeper. It's been 213 minutes since they last conceded in Vanarama National League North.

Farsley are the visiting side once again, their previous game being the 0-0 draw at Kettering Town (placed 18th).

A 0-0 draw was the result before that, hosting Chorley.

As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites. Perhaps this eases the pressure on the away team, who are capable of producing an upset here on a good day. Looking at earlier matches with similar odds and Farsley Celtic playing away, we found 5 games. Results were 1 away win, 1 draw and 3 home wins.

The schedule is very tough for Farsley Celtic now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Vanarama National League North game at Fylde is waiting in only three days.

Farsley struggle to build an impenetrable defensive wall in away matches with a total of 31 goals conceded from these games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 2 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
