  • Most recent home league game: 2-2 draw with Stourbridge (22nd March)
  • Only Telford (14) have drawn more league games than Royston’s 13 this season.

  • In all four of losses, they failed to score. So, that means that when Royston have scored at home in the league this season, they have never lost.

  • In terms of each side’s last 10 games, they are the fourth lowest scorers (with 9) and no team has drawn more (6). Two teams’ games have seen less goals (Alvechurch and Redditch with 17 – both six scored and eleven conceded. Royston’s have seen 19 – 9 scored and ten conceded).

  • Royston have lost one in their last eight league games (Banbury, A, 1-0, 15th March), but have only one win in their last nine (Alvechurch last time out – making them winless in eight before that).
  • Their last win before that was at home to Bedford (1-0, 4th Feb) Between those two wins, they’d drawn six of eight games.
  • In each of their last eight matches, no team has scored more than two goals – the last time this didn’t happen was when they lost to Stratford on 8th Feb (3-0, A).
  • They are six unbeaten at home (W2 D4). Their last home loss was on 18th Jan (Harborough, 0-2). Prior to that, they went five unbeaten before that as well – so it’s one loss in 12 home matches. Their last home loss before Harborough was Stratford (0-1, 2nd November).
