Blyth Spartans form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Blyth Spartans so far with only 1 point returning home. The records show 0-1-5 (win-draw-lose). Blyth Spartans are desperate to end a ten-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the AFC Telford United fixture.
Spartans are looking to quickly end their 316 minutes long goal drought in the Vanarama National League North.
Blyth Spartans play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 0-4 to Kettering Town (placed 14th). Spartans lost the plot completely in their previous game, as mentioned above. They need to recover quickly from that 0-4 beating and focus on this one.
A 0-2 loss hosting Leamington before that.As mentioned above, the odds for this match puts the home team as favourites.
