Buxton receive Blyth Spartans for another intriguing Vanarama National League North game here at The Silverlands.

Buxton form and stats

OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Buxton's two home games in the Vanarama National League North so far this season, having collected 4 points here at The Silverlands.

No payout for Buxton in their previous match, an away game at Hereford that ended in defeat 0-2. The first setback in the shape of a loss after going undefeated in three league fixtures.

In the match before that, Buxton hosted Leamington and drew the game 1-1.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Buxton as they are travelling to their away game against AFC Telford United in the Vanarama National League North. That match is two days after this one.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Buxton at home in the league. 2 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

W D L L W

Blyth Spartans form and stats

Still no away game victory in the Vanarama National League North for Blyth Spartans with 1 draw and 1 loss from their first 2 attempts.

Blyth Spartans go into this game after a win, the home game against Gloucester City that ended 2-0. That win was so needed for this team, after a horrific sequence of eleven league matches in a row not winning.

A 1-1 draw at Chorley's stadium before that.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Scarborough Athletic in just two days.

1 goal so far away for Blyth Spartans, while their defence has allowed the opposition to score 3. All from 2 league matches away.

Head 2 Head

Blyth Spartans have put together a sequence of 5 consecutive games without defeat (3-2-0) when playing Buxton.
