Hartlepool United, Recent FormLosing 2-0 away to Salford City won't leave the Hartlepool United squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 14 places above them in the league.
It seems pretty certain that John Askey will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 8 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 8 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They are showing great consistency at The Suit Direct Stadium in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 home games. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 14 games.
Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 home games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games. They've had an unusually high number of draws when playing at home this season, with 10 draws in 21 home league games.
Dan Kemp will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Hartlepool United.
Crawley Town, Recent FormA 0-0 draw and a point gained against Colchester United in their previous meeting will have been considered a fairly decent for Crawley Town last time out.
They have circumvented their opponent's defence to score 4 times in their last 6 league games but unfortunately haven't managed to lock things down at their end, conceding 10 goals in these games and, in the process, missing out on some valuable points. After failing to get on the scoresheet in 10 away games out of 21 this season, Scott Lindsay will be looking for a bit more consistency from his forwards. They have found it hard to grab league points away from home of late, primarily due to their back line shipping at least 1 goal in 19 of their last 21 away games.
They've had a dismal run of form on their travels recently, losing all but 1 of their last 6 away games, a solitary win providing little consolation. Winning away from home has been a bit of a problem for them this season having only managed to win 1 of their 21 league games on the road.
It was one to forget for Crawley Town last time they met Hartlepool United in the league, falling to a 0-2 defeat.
The stats show that in the last 3 meetings between The Red Devils and their rivals, Hartlepool, the former have conceded at least one goal. On each of the last 3 outings between Crawley and Hartlepool in the league, The Red Devils have not performed well in front of goal and have come up empty-handed in terms of goals. Crawley have struggled to break down The Pool defence in their past encounters having only managed to find the back of the net 2 times in their last 5 meetings.
In the last 3 league meetings between the teams, Hartlepool has taken all 3 points and has not lost to Crawley in 3 games.
With no real injury worries, Hartlepool manager John Askey will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
Crawley manager Scott Lindsay has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
