Clyde form and stats

With 1 League One win, 2 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Clyde are certainly not brimming with confidence. With seven home League One games in a row without a win, the Clyde fans could feel they are not getting value for their money.

The Clyde manager Duffy and his players return home after a 0-0 draw away versus Elgin City in the Challenge Cup.

Preceding that match was the home League One game against Edinburgh City that was lost 0-2.

The Clyde fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 12 in 9 matches. Clyde have conceded 19 goals in these home games, a significant number.
