Early season league goal statistics from Athlone Town's 1 home game: 3 goals, 1 conceded.
Wexford Youths form and stats
It's not happening yet for Wexford Youths on their First Division travels, with zero points from their first 2 away games. Maybe today will be different? It's looking increasingly bleak for Wexford who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Cabinteely was the last time a defeat was avoided. Wexford Youths seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
