Blyth Spartans form and stats

Blyth Spartans have collected 19 points from their Vanarama National League North home games so far after 4-7-6.

The Blyth Spartans goalkeeper Alex Mitchell is looking to record 90 more "clean sheet" minutes as his team have now played 280 minutes without conceding a goal in the Vanarama National League North.

Blyth Spartans are returning here after guesting North Shields in a Northumberland Senior Cup match and winning with a 2-1 scoreline.

A strong away win before that one, visiting AFC Telford United and winning 1-0.

There will be little rest for Spartans after this match as they are travelling to Southport for a Vanarama National League North game in only three days.

The Blyth Spartans fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 17 matches. On the other hand, Spartans have conceded 20 goals.

Fylde form and stats

The away team have been very comfortable on their travels so far, racking up 9 wins, 3 draws and only 3 losses in the Vanarama National League North. Fylde are enjoying a nice run from their away games now, having played eight in a row without losing.

Fylde are travelling after their nice 3-1 home win in the game against Farsley Celtic (placed 23rd).

A 3-3 draw was the result before that, hosting King's Lynn Town.

Fylde have another game away in just three days, a Vanarama National League North fixture vs Buxton. A grim fixture list for them!

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Fylde have scored 21 goals in 15 league games away. It's not easy to score on Fylde as they have only conceded 13 goals from these away games. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 0 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.

Head 2 Head

Fylde have won or drawn the last 7 fixtures (6-1-0) versus Blyth Spartans.
