OPPOSITION

  • This season: P34 W12 D7 L15. GD +1. 43 points. They sit 13th (of 22 teams)
  • This season (home league games): P16 W8 D2 L6. GD +7. 26 points
  • Last five league games: W1 D4
  • Last five league home games: W2 D2 L1
  • Most recent league game: 2-3 away win at Kettering (Saturday)
  • Most recent home league game: 2-2 draw with Telford (1st March)
  • Outside of teams currently in the play-offs, no team has scored more in the league than St Ives’ 48 (same number as Stourbridge)
  • With two home draws in the league this season, only Alvechurch and Harborough (both 1), have drawn less. These two draws have come in their last two at home (the aforementioned Telford game and a 1-1 draw with Stamford – 15th February). This means they went 14 home league matches without a draw beforehand.
  • With four draws in their last five league games, no team has drawn more across this same period
  • With nine goals scored in these five, only Telford (10) have scored more in each side’s last quintet of matches
  • With 17 goals in these five games (nine scored, eight conceded), no side’s games have seen more (Telford’s have also had 17)
  • With 15 goals conceded in their last 10 league games, only Barwell (20) and Lowestoft (24), who are both in the league’s bottom five, have conceded more than St Ives across the same amount of matches
  • The Kettering win ended a run of five straight league draws. They’re unbeaten in their last seven league matches, winning their match before the five draws
  • Prior to this unbeaten run, they had lost three league games in a row (these three losses were amidst a run of six losses in seven league matches).
  • They have been unbeaten in the league since the start of February – their last defeat was a 1-0 loss at Biggleswade (25th January) and their last home defeat was a 1-2 loss versus Bedford (18th January – they have gone three home matches unbeaten since, those being the Telford & Stamford matches, along with a 2-1 win versus Alvechurch)
  • St Ives have drawn seven league games this season – as mentioned, five of these have come in their last six games. The other two were both away (Lowestoft, 1-1, 21st December & Sudbury, 0-0, 26th October). This means they didn’t draw inside their first 12 league matches this season
  • They have scored and conceded in their last seven league games. The last time they failed to score was Biggleswade. The last time they kept a clean sheet was a 0-3 at Bedford on 9th November – this means they have gone 19 league games without a clean sheet
  • They have scored and conceded in their last five home league games. The last time they failed to score at home was a 0-1 defeat vs Royston on Boxing Day. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their 16 home league games this season
  • Cambridge United-loanee George Munday is a player to watch – the striker has scored in each of St Ives’ last three league matches
