OPPOSITION
- This season: P29 W13 D6 L10. GD +8. 45 points. They sit 11th (of 22 teams).
- This season (home league games): P12 W6 D3 L3. GD +12. 21 points.
- Last five league games: W4 D1
- Last five league home games: W3 D2
- Most recent league game: 2-0 home win versus Stratford (Tuesday)
- Only Alvechurch and Redditch have drawn less than the Poppies’ six this season.
- Only Worcester (31) have conceded less than Kettering’s 41 of the teams outside the play offs
- In regards to their home games this season, their record is difficult to assess, as they have only played 12. The next lowest is 15, with the majority of sides having played 16 or 17.
- Their current unbeaten run is five matches in the league – they lost their two league matches directly before that and were unbeaten in four in the league prior to those two.
- They have the second best record in terms of every side’s last five league games (13 points – only Spalding’s is better on goal difference). Across the period, only two sides have scored more than their 11, only three have conceded less than their three and their goal difference of +8 is the second best (behind Spalding’s 10).
- They’ve scored in their last 12 league games – the last time they never was in their 3-0 defeat at Sporting on 22nd November.
- As mentioned above, they won on Tuesday at home – their last home league game before that was 20th December, due to postponements. However, their home ‘form’ is solid – only two teams have a better record, no team has scored more than their 13 across every side’s last five games at home, only one team has conceded less than their three, and their goal difference of +10 is the joint best. They’re five unbeaten at home (W4 D1), with four of those being clean sheets (the three goals all conceded in a 3-3 draw with Bury Town).
- The last time they didn’t score at home was five home games ago – a 0-0 draw with St Ives.
- Midfielder Preston Bitemo has scored in their last two games, whilst striker Eddie Panter scored in their three before that, including a hat-trick in a 1-3 win at St Ives.
- Panter is their top scorer this season, with eight goals (as per footballwebpages.co.uk)
