Newtown form and stats

Overall stats at home this season for Newtown are 2-0-2 (wins-draw-losses). With three straight defeats the pressure is piling up on Newtown to get some points in this home game.

In their previous game, the manager C. Hughes led his Newtown to a defeat in the Premier League match away at Caernarfon Town. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at G.F. Grigg Latham Park. Ahead of that match, Newtown lost 0-6 at home to The New Saints.

A decent goal production from Newtown in their home games so far, with 7 goals from 4 matches. Neutralizing the opposition is a challenge, Newtown having conceded 10 goals here at G.F. Grigg Latham Park so far.

Bala Town form and stats

As the visiting team Bala Town, who have the fewest scored goals (8) in Premier League, have produced an overall stat of 1-0-3 so far. With the Bala Town losing streak of four defeats in a row, regardless of arena, optimism is low and sinking.

The manager C. Caton was unhappy after their last game, a Premier League match played at their home ground G.F. Grigg Latham Park. Bala Town suffered a 1-4 loss to Connah's Quay. A loss against Barry Town United was the result prior to that, in a home game.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Bala Town as they have only managed to score 3 times from 4 away games. As opposed to that, Bala Town have seen the ball go into their own net 5 times on the road.

Head 2 Head

This is not the first time this season these parties meet, as the history books show this recent fixture: Bala Town - Newtown 2-2. H2H stats regardless of arena (last ten matches): Newtown 1 win, 4 draws and Bala Town 5 victories.
