Treaty United form and stats

The First Division season is young and Treaty United have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 2 draws and 1 defeat so far.

It's another away game for the visitors, as they travelled to Athlone Town (placed 4th) in their previous outing. The match ended in a draw 2-2. Drawing 2-2 against Athlone Town after 90 minutes last time out was very disappointing after leading the match 2-0. Their manager Barrett needs to evaluate why the team couldn't defend their result.

The game before that, was lost at home, a 0-3 defeat against Cobh Ramblers.

We have checked recent matches where Treaty have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those 4 games were 1 victory, 3 draws and 0 defeats.

As opposed to that, Treaty United have seen the ball go into their own net 4 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

As for the last seven games between these two teams, there's one Wexford Youths victory, two draws and four Treaty United wins. Over/under statistics; three of these games ended with three goals or more, four matches with two goals or less.
