Chesterfield vs Oldham Athletic: match statistics
Statistical analysis indicates very even chances for both teams. Chesterfield presents a solid home form with a 44% win rate and only 17% home defeats, scoring an average of 1.78 goals per match. Oldham Athletic, on the other hand, is experiencing an excellent run – in their last five matches, they have accumulated as many as 13 points (4 wins, 1 draw) and conceded just 1 goal, which proves their very good defensive organization. The visitors' form (WWDWW) is distinctly better than the hosts' (DLWLW), who have recently recorded inconsistent results. Oldham also boasts an impressive 47% clean sheet rate on the road.
