United of Manchester and Nuneaton Town spectators can't wait for Vanarama National League North clash at Broadhurst Park

Competition: England Vanarama National League North
Date: Sat 30.March
Match begins: 15:00 (UTC)
Venue: Broadhurst Park (4400 seats)

It's an important duel in the bottom section of the league table, with both teams experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic “six-pointer” with the home team placed 20th and the visitors in 22nd place.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Vanarama National League North. Thankfully the previous game, versus York City, was also a home game here at Broadhurst Park. The away team is better rested.

United of Manchester form and stats

The struggle is real here at Broadhurst Park with only 13 points collected from 21 games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly 1-10-10. With eight home games in a row without a win, the United of Manchester fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Curzon Ashton game long ago, can be stopped today.

The points were shared in United of Manchester's previous game, also at home. Visiting York City (placed 14th) travelled back with a point after a 3-3 scoreline. Prior to that was the away defeat visiting Curzon Ashton (1-3).

United of Manchester has scored 24 goals at home this season, in 21 matches. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the United of Manchester defense is not exactly impregnable. 39 goals conceded from 21 games.

Last season, United of Manchester's league statistics were 14 wins, 8 draws and 20 losses, resulting in a 15th position in the league. Over these 42 matches they scored 58 goals and conceded 72. Playing at home last season United of Manchester managed 12-2-7 (win-draw-lost) with 35 goals and 26 conceded.

Nuneaton Town form and stats

The hunting on away grounds hasn’t been very fruitful for Nuneaton Town so far with only 14 points returning home. The records show 2-8-11 (win-draw-lose). Nuneaton Town are desperate to end a 15-game winless run, as they haven't won a game since the Darlington fixture. Three might be a magic number, but there's been little wizardry in Nuneaton Town's last three away games as they have all been lost.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Vanarama National League North home defeat versus Darlington with 1-2 on the scoreboard. Preceding that, the 1-2 home loss versus Alfreton Town.

The visitors have scored 17 goals from 21 away games, an average of less than one per game. Nuneaton Town have conceded 37 goals in these games.
