Insights:
  • Airbus UK have the most conceded goals (19) in Premier League
  • Bala Town have scored at least twice as many goals as they have conceded.

3-1-2 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Bala Town when playing away games on artifical turf, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has grass). Their goal statistics from those six matches are 9-6 (scored/conceded).

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Airbus UK form and stats

Airbus UK have played three Premier League home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 1 point from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead.

The regulars are hoping that Airbus UK will strike back in this fixture, putting things right after the 1-2 away loss in the match against Aberystwyth Town (placed 9th). The penalty miss from Eyre in the defeat against Aberystwyth Town was a source of irritation for some fans, but these things happen.

In the match before that, Airbus hosted Newtown and drew the game 4-4.

Airbus UK has scored 6 goals so far and conceded 9 goals from 3 home games. These are numbers from the league only.
