In these 46 matches they scored {57 goals} and gave away 63. Performing at home in the last season Welling United managed 8-5-10 (win-draw-lost) with {31 goals} and 32 conceded.

Welling lost their last game at Truro City (placed 1st) after a 2-5 scoreline. As you can tell by the result above, the goals flowed freely in the previous game and the stadium rocked. Could there be another goal fest today?

A strong away win before that one, visiting Havant & Waterlooville and winning 3-0.

Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Welling United as a small favourite), we find 7 games. Welling United has won 0 of these, drawn 2 and lost 5.

Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Chelmsford City are coming to town in three days.
