Blackpool News and Form

Blackpool have only suffered one defeat in their last eight league games. That was a home defeat against Rotherham back in the middle of October. It is an unbeaten W1 D2 record that they have put together in the league since then. Back at the start of November in their last league outing they got a huge three points at home against Peterborough who are sitting third in the table. That moved them on to a home record of W4 D2 L2 this season.

62% of league matches at Bloomfield Road have gone over 2.5 goals. Blackpool have averaged 1.6 goals per home game but have so far, only managed one home clean sheet. They are on a run of seven games there without one in the league. In just 6 of their 16 matches played this season have Blackpool scored the opening goal. Both teams have scored in 75% of Blackpool’s home games, so this has the potential to be entertaining.

AFC Wimbledon News and Form

It may sound strange talking about a side sitting one place above the relegation zone but there have been huge positives from AFC Wimbledon. They have taken a W3 D1 L1 record in their last five games. Those have been the only three successes in this campaign, so their record form has improved drastically. Last time out they played out a 1-1 home draw with Lincoln. Their away form leaves a lot to be desired this season, however.

They are W1 L7 out on their travels in League One. The one victory which they did take was at second-from-bottom Southend. That was just back in the middle of October, but they followed it up with a 1-0 loss at Burton on their following road game. Each of their last three league games now have ended under 2.5 goals. AFC Wimbledon have conceded at an average of two goals per away game in League One this season.
