Yeovil Town form and stats

As the visiting team in Vanarama National League matches, Yeovil Town, who have the most scored goals (50) in Vanarama National League, have produced an overall stat of 6-3-4 so far.

Yeovil Town won their last game, 6-2 versus Torquay United played at home. A 2-2 draw at Fylde's stadium before that.

As mentioned above, Yeovil Town was the only team on the pitch versus Torquay United in their previous game, winning 6-2. This could be a tougher task. It's hard not to mention C. Duffus's lethal finishing against Torquay United. 3 goals was a big reason for the three points.

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Yeovil Town manager D. Sarll as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Torquay United.
