The home fans are expecting three points in this fixture, as the home advantage should be put to good use versus a struggling visitor. Woking are in the 10th position while the guests worry at 24th.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Woking and Chorley.
Woking form and stats
Overall Vanarama National League stats at home this season for Woking are 5-5-4 (wins-draw-losses). With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Woking to get some points in this home game.
In their previous game, the manager A. Dowson led his Woking to a defeat in the Vanarama National League match away at Sutton United. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Kingfield Stadium. Prior to that, an away loss at Torquay United.
Woking were outplayed and humiliated in their previous game, as mentioned in the paragraph above. They will need to reinstall their confidence before this one.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Woking have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found four games) they have won 2 times, drawn 1 and lost 1.
Woking has scored 16 league goals at home this season, in 14 matches. On the other hand, Woking have conceded 18 goals.
Chorley form and stats
The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Chorley so far with only 10 points returning home. The records show 1-7-6 (win-draw-lose). Recent form does not give Chorley much hope, as the visitors have lost three games in a row. Woking will be a tough nut to crack. Chorley seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Chorley aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 180 league minutes without a goal. N. Massanka was the last player to find the net.
Chorley failed to get anything from their last game, a Vanarama National League home match vs Wrexham (placed 19th) that ended with defeat 0-2. The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-2 defeat against Harrogate Town.
Chorley are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 1 win, 2 draws and 2 defeats. From a total of five matches.
Chorley find the net in their away games, although not all the time. 14 goals from 14 away fixtures in the league. Chorley have conceded 27 goals in these games.
