Chorley form and stats

Playing away, Chorley have won 2 games, drawn 0 and suffered 2 defeats in the Vanarama National League North this season.

This fixture can not go any worse than the last one, a FA Cup home defeat versus Blyth Spartans with 0-1 on the scoreboard.

Preceding that match was the 2-2 draw at home vs Chester.

Chorley are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 defeat. From a total of 5 matches.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Chorley manager Preece as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Fylde.

Chorley have conceded 5 goals in these away matches.

Head 2 Head

Head-to-head numbers (for the last two meetings): King's won zero games, zero matches ended with a draw and Chorley managed two wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: zero / two.
