Warrenpoint Town form and stats

The manager B. Gray is not happy with the away performances in the Premiership so far, as all 4 matches have been lost. Warrenpoint are generally in trouble as the list of consecutive losses is growing into an ugly monster. Regardless of home/away, the visitors have now lost nine in a row. It's been 10 weeks since they last avoided defeat. (The Ballymena United game.)

Warrenpoint Town failed to get anything from their last game, a Premiership home match vs Crusaders (placed 6th) that ended with defeat 2-4. A bonkers fixture with heaps of goals last time out for Warrenpoint Town, as mentioned above. 6 goals in that game, will this fixture be as exciting?
