Crawley Town vs Harrogate Town: match statistics
Crawley Town, despite their low position in the table, are displaying significantly better home form than Harrogate Town's away performances. The hosts have a higher shooting accuracy (9% vs 10%), considerably more shots on target per game (4.92 vs 2.79), and dominate in terms of possession (62% vs 44%). Harrogate Town sits at the bottom of the table, with a mere 14% win rate away from home and a dreadful run of five consecutive matches without a victory. Furthermore, the visitors have failed to score in 29% of their away matches, which, combined with the hosts' solid xG Against (1.34), indicates difficulties in creating goal-scoring opportunities. The difference in Expected Goals (xG For: 1.66 vs 0.97) and Harrogate's away goal difference (-8) further support a home win. Taking all these factors into account, Crawley Town has a genuine chance of securing three points, although the hosts' draw history (38%) suggests a share of the points is also a possibility.
