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 16th and the visitors in 18th place.

Braintree Town form and stats

Braintree Town, who have the most conceded goals (57) in Vanarama National League South, have played 12 Vanarama National League South games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 4-2-6 (wins-draws-losses). Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Braintree Town with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Havant & Waterlooville game, 21 days ago, have they avoided a loss. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Braintree Town, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

In their previous game, the manager G. Borg led his Braintree Town to a defeat in the Vanarama National League South match away at Dulwich Hamlet. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Avanti Stadium. Before that game, the home loss against Chelmsford City with the scoreline 1-2.

Braintree Town were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.

Braintree Town have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Avanti Stadium with 18 goals in 12 league matches. Braintree Town are struggling defensively, conceding on average more than two goals per home game (24 from 12 played).
