Weymouth form and stats

The previous season, Weymouth's league statistics were 6 wins, 10 draws and 28 losses, results that produced 22nd position in the Vanarama National League. From these 44 matches they scored 40 goals and conceded 88. Playing at their own stadium in the former season Weymouth managed 3-7-12 (win-draw-lost) with 21 goals and 38 conceded. The home fans saw their team lose the first Vanarama National League South game of the season here at Bob Lucas Stadium. Last season these fans witnessed 3 wins, 7 draws and 12 losses from Weymouth's 22 home games.

Weymouth's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 1-3 versus Tonbridge Angels (placed 4th).

Preceding that match was the home Vanarama National League game against Barnet that was lost 1-2.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Weymouth as they have a new game in only three days, a Vanarama National League South match thankfully also at home. Worthing are visiting.

In total they scored 78 and conceded 53 goals in these matches. The numbers for away games only are: Won 11 - drew 1 and lost 8 with 33/35 goals scored/conceded.

Ebbsfleet United go into this game after a win, the home game against Chippenham Town that ended 3-0.

Before that one, a nice away victory 2-1 at Billericay Town.
