Curzon Ashton form and stats

With 2 Vanarama National League North wins, 1 draw and 4 defeats from their home games, Curzon Ashton are certainly not brimming with confidence. It's trouble wherever Curzon Ashton are playing these days as they have suffered six straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. Game days at Tameside Stadium have recently become somewhat of a nightmare for Curzon Ashton as they have lost three home games in a row. It hurts.

The Curzon Ashton crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Blyth Spartans here at Tameside Stadium in a Vanarama National League North match. Heartbreak before that as Curzon Ashton lost 1-2 at Farsley Celtic's place.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Curzon Ashton have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found five games) they have won 1 time, drawn 3 and lost 1.

Curzon Ashton are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 10 goals in 7 attempts. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 11 goals have been conceded.
