Struggling Braintree Town will be hoping to pull off an upset when they welcome high-flying Weymouth in the upcoming league round. It’s 17th vs 3rd and the home crowd will have moderate expectations.

It’s a hectic schedule for the away team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Vanarama National League South. That game, against Hemel Hempstead Town, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Weymouth.

Braintree Town form and stats

Braintree Town's results here at Ironmongery Direct Stadium in the Vanarama National League South have been very modest with 4 victories, 2 draws and 8 defeats. With eight home games in a row without a win, the Braintree Town fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Oxford City game long ago, can be stopped today.

The Braintree Town crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-1 to Slough Town here at Ironmongery Direct Stadium in a Vanarama National League South match. In the game before, an away victory match versus Oxford City with a 4-1 scoreline.

The Braintree Town fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 18 in 14 matches. Braintree Town have conceded 26 from these games.

Weymouth form and stats

As the visiting team in Vanarama National League South matches, Weymouth have produced an overall stat of 5-6-2 so far. Having won their last three away games Weymouth has no reason to fear anyone.

It's the second away game in a row for Weymouth, but there's smiles all around after the 1-0 victory versus Hemel Hempstead Town (placed 11th) in the Vanarama National League South last time out. That result followed a home victory 2-1 versus Dorking Wanderers.

The schedule is very tough for Weymouth now as they have to travel again shortly after this match. A Vanarama National League South game at Havant & Waterlooville is waiting in only four days.

Weymouth are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 18 away goals from 13 games (in the league). They concede less than a goal on average per away game (12 so far).
