Southport form and stats

In the previous season, Southport's league stats were 14 wins, 15 draws and 13 losses, ending with 11th position in the Vanarama National League North. During these 42 matches they scored 60 goals and gave away 55. Playing at their own stadium in the previous season Southport generated 8-11-2 (win-draw-lost) with 35 goals and 20 conceded.

Southport are returning here after visiting Boston United and winning with a 5-3 scoreline. Vassallo, Woods, Doyle and Archer (2) scored the goal(s). Sweet to taste a league win after five fixtures without one. A goal frenzy last time out for Southport, with a total of 8 goals in the match against Boston United. Fun stuff to watch!

In the game before, an away victory match versus Bradford Park Avenue with a 5-0 scoreline.

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 Southport have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found 6 games) they have won 1 time, drawn 4 and lost 1.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Vanarama National League North game versus Darlington in only three days. This game is also played here at Haig Avenue.

Peterborough Sports form and stats

Let's have a look at how Peterborough Sports performed last season in the Non League Premier: Southern: They landed a 2nd position in the league table after playing out 24 victories, 7 draws and 9 defeats. In total they scored 94 and conceded 46 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 10 - drew 5 and lost 5 with 44/29 goals scored/conceded.

Peterborough Sports delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Buxton (placed 14th) in their previous match.

A 0-0 draw at Leiston's stadium before that.

The schedule is very tough for Peterborough now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Vanarama National League North game at Gloucester City is waiting in only three days.
