Airbus UK form and stats

The story so far in the Premier League for Airbus UK at their home stadium (The Hollingsworth Group Stadium) is 2 wins, 1 draw and 3 defeats.

The fans are hoping that Airbus UK will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Premier League game against Barry Town United (placed 2nd). Previous to that game, a home match hosting Newtown in a game that was won 2-0.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent.
