Hereford form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Hereford so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 3-1-10 (win-draw-lose). A depressing five defeats in a row for Hereford in their away games. Unhappy days, as the last time they avoided a loss on the road was versus Darlington.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Vanarama National League North home defeat versus Altrincham with 0-2 on the scoreboard. A draw for Hereford before that, at their own venue hosting Darlington (2-2).
There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Hereford manager J. Gowling as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Farsley Celtic.
Many goals are not expected from the visiting Hereford as they have only managed to score 13 times from 14 away games in the league. The Hereford manager J. Gowling has some worries about the defense as 30 goals have been conceded in these travels.
