AFC Telford United form and stats

AFC Telford United have only collected 7 points from their away games in the Vanarama National League North, after 1-4-12 (17 played). Bitter travels for Telford as they have lost four games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Buxton match.

AFC Telford United might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Blyth Spartans proved too strong as AFC Telford United slumped to a 0-1 defeat in front of their own fans at New Bucks Head Ground.

Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Leamington.

Telford are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 5 draws and 5 defeats. From a total of 11 matches.

After this away game AFC Telford United return home for a Vanarama National League North game against Bradford Park Avenue. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Telford as they have only managed to score 10 times from 17 away games in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 1 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. AFC Telford United's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 31 goals from these trips.
