Yeovil Town form and stats

Yeovil Town have played 13 Vanarama National League games at their own stadium so far this season, resulting in 7-3-3 (wins-draws-losses).

The home team returns to Huish Park after sharing the points with Fylde (placed 20th) on their last time out; the Vanarama National League game ended 2-2. Before that, Yeovil Town had a Fa Trophy home game versus Welling United which ended with a victory 3-1.

Trouble was brewing at the score 0-2 against Fylde last time out, but a goal from C. Duffus completed a comeback to a draw result for Yeovil Town.

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 Yeovil Town have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found seven games) they have won 2 times, drawn 2 and lost 3.

There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Yeovil Town as they are travelling to their away game against Sutton United in the Vanarama National League. That match is two days after this one.

Yeovil Town have proved capable of finding the net in their games here at Huish Park with 22 goals in 13 league matches. Yeovil Town have conceded 14 in these home matches.

Torquay United form and stats

4-3-6 is the win-draw-loss statistic for Torquay United in their Vanarama National League matches away. It's looking increasingly bleak for Torquay United who now has to deal with a six game losing streak. Halifax Town was the last time a defeat was avoided. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on G. Johnson, the Torquay United manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

The manager G. Johnson was unhappy after their last game, a Vanarama National League match played at their home ground Plainmoor Ground. Torquay United suffered a 0-3 loss to Chesterfield (placed 22nd). A home win before that, celebrating 5-1 vs Aldershot Town.

Torquay United are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is 0 wins, 1 draw and 6 defeats. From a total of seven matches.

A quick return to home after this game, as Torquay United are hosting Woking in the Vanarama National League only two days away.

Torquay United has displayed an ability to score goals in away matches in the league this season, 23 goals from 13 games. In the opposite end, Torquay United have conceded 23 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

Last two meetings between the teams: Yeovil Town won 0, Torquay United won 1 and 1 draw. 2 games with over 2,5 goals, 0 matches with two goals or less.
