-0.29 points a game is the venue form gap, in Carlisle United's favour: Wealdstone takes 1.62 a game at home over the last two seasons, Carlisle United 1.92 away.
Wealdstone: 49 league matches in the bank, 3 from this season and the rest from last season. Carlisle United: 50 league matches in the bank, 3 from this season and the rest from last season.
The question this step asks
Step two is HOME AND AWAY FORM -- the home side judged on its home record, the away side on its away record, because those are the records that will be on the pitch. The last five reach back into last season where this season is too young to answer, and say so.
The two sides
Wealdstone -- at home
Its record at the relevant venue
This season at home: won 0, drew 0, lost 1 of 1, scoring 1 and conceding 3. Last season at home: won 11, drew 6, lost 6 of 23, scoring 42 and conceding 31 -- 1.70 points a game.
Its last five league matches
Newest first: lost to Worthing 0-1 away; lost to Harrogate Town 1-3 at home; drew with Fylde 2-2 away; lost to Southend United 1-2 away; drew with Scunthorpe United 1-1 at home. The last 2 of these are from last season.
The dugout
The banked record belongs to the club, not one man: 4 different managers took its 23 matches with one recorded (9, 8, 4, 2 apiece), most recently Gary Waddock with 9. Who picks the team today is not yet recorded this season, so a summer change of manager would not show in these figures.
Carlisle United -- away
Its record at the relevant venue
This season away: won 0, drew 1, lost 0 of 1, scoring 1 and conceding 1. Last season away: won 14, drew 3, lost 6 of 23, scoring 34 and conceding 27 -- 1.96 points a game.
Its last five league matches
Newest first: beat AFC Hornchurch 4-1 at home; drew with Yeovil Town 1-1 away; lost to Worthing 2-3 at home; lost to Boreham Wood 1-2 at home; beat Brackley Town 3-0 at home. The last 2 of these are from last season.
The dugout
The banked record belongs to the club, not one man: 2 different managers took its 24 matches with one recorded (21, 3 apiece), most recently Rob Elliott with 3. Who picks the team today is not yet recorded this season, so a summer change of manager would not show in these figures.
