Spartans W form and stats

There's been little loot from Spartans W's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 11 away games in the SWPL 1. Spartans W only have 3 wins to counter their 6 defeats and 2 draws. The visitors have performed well in their home games as well, building a total win streak of four games home and away. Spartans hope to make it five in this match.

The fans enjoyed Spartans W's previous game versus Aberdeen W, a 6-2 win played at home. As mentioned above, Spartans W was the only team on the pitch versus Aberdeen W in their previous game, winning 6-2. This could be a tougher task. Which player has scored three matches in a row for the away side? The answer is Bates and that is impressive stuff!

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Spartans W manager McCulloch as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Motherwell W.

The attacking power of Spartans W when travelling is not overwhelming with 9 goals scored from 11 league matches away. The Spartans manager McCulloch has some worries about the defense as 24 goals have been conceded in these travels. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three away matches.
