Eastleigh vs Halifax Town: match statistics
Halifax Town displays clearly better form in the last five matches, earning 2.4 points per game compared to just 0.8 points for Eastleigh. The hosts sit in 15th place with an 8-7-12 record and only one win in their last five meetings, indicating serious form issues. Despite struggles away from home (36% win rate), Halifax is currently on an impressive run of four consecutive victories overall. Eastleigh has a weak defense in home matches, conceding an average of 1.75 goals per game, which Halifax—having conceded just 3 goals in their last five matches—could exploit. The visitors' advantage in form, offensive efficiency (10 goals in the last 5 matches), and recent defensive solidity gives them a real chance of securing a win, although Halifax Town's weaker away disposition does not rule out a draw or a surprise result for the hosts.
