Chorley and Leamington have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Vanarama National League North.

Insights:
  • Chorley haven’t played a single 0-0 game at home.
  • Leamington have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

There haven't been much time to rest for the hosts, as they played a FA Cup match only three days ago. This match was also played here at The Chorley Group Victory Park Stadium. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Leamington have had more rest.
