OPPOSITION
- This season: P40 W17 D9 L14. GD +8. 60 points. They sit 11th (of 22 teams).
- This season (home league games): P20 W11 D4 L5. GD +13. 37 points.
- Last five league games: W3 D2
- Last five league home games: W3 D1 L1
- Most recent league game: 1-3 win at Spalding (Saturday).
- Most recent league game at home: 2-0 win vs Kettering (Easter Monday).
- Of teams currently outside the play-offs, only Worcester (38) and Alvechurch (51) have conceded less than the Bards’ 52.
- They’ve gone seven league games unbeaten (W5 D2) – only league champions Harborough (10) are currently on a longer unbeaten league run.
- Only Needham Market (12) have picked up more points in every side’s last five league games (Stratford have 11, W3 D2).
- Harborough’s 14 scored and goal difference of +7 is the best in the league across every side’s last five games – Stratford’s 12 and +6 are the next best across both of those metrics.
- They are unbeaten in four league games at home (W3 D1), the draw being 2-2 versus Quorn (the wins being against Kettering, Stamford and Royston)
- Their last home league defeat was versus Halesowen, five games ago (0-2, 10th March). This game, and the aforementioned four above, give them the ninth best record in the league in terms of every side’s last five home games (compared to the third best record across every side’s last five, home or away).
- Spells of results have been a theme for Stratford this season – prior to this seven match unbeaten run was a winless run of eight league games (D2 L6). They had also gone on a six match winning league streak in the winter, with that run itself preceded by a six match winless league run (D3 L3).
- They have scored in their last seven games (scoring two or more in six of them). Prior to that, and continuing the theme of spells, they had only scored in two of nine league matches (two in total, both scored by Lewis Ison).
- At home in the league this season, they have scored in all but three matches – two of those being in their last six at home (Bury 28th Feb and Halesowen 10th March, both 0-2) and an opening day 0-3 defeat to Banbury.
- They have scored in their last four at home in the league though, with Owen James and Kory Roberts both scoring in three of these (with both of them not scoring in the 2-0 win versus Kettering last time out at home)
- Top scorers this season, as per footballwebpages.co.uk: Owen James – 12 & Kyle Lafferty – 11.
