Blyth Spartans form and stats

Things could have gone better for Blyth Spartans in their Vanarama National League North away matches, but 4 points from 3 games is all right.

Blyth Spartans might have something to prove in this game as they lost at home in their previous match. Scarborough Athletic proved too strong as Blyth Spartans slumped to a 1-2 defeat in front of their own fans at Croft Park. That defeat was their first after three consecutive league fixtures winning points.

Preceding that game was the away victory against Buxton with the score of 2-1.

Spartans 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 5 defeats. From a total of 9 matches.

As opposed to that, Blyth Spartans have seen the ball go into their own net 4 times on the road.
