+0.91 points a game is the venue form gap, in Sheffield United Ladies's favour: Sheffield United Ladies takes 1.09 a game at home over the last two seasons, Leicester City WFC 0.18 away.
Sheffield United Ladies: 22 league matches in the bank, all from last season. Leicester City WFC: 22 league matches in the bank, all from last season in the Women's Super League.
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
Sheffield United Ladies -- at home
Its record at the relevant venue
No home game yet this season. Last season at home: won 3, drew 3, lost 5 of 11, scoring 10 and conceding 19 -- 1.09 points a game.
Its last five league matches
Newest first: lost to Bristol City Women 0-4 at home; lost to Durham Women 1-2 away; lost to Ipswich Town W 1-4 away; lost to Southampton W 2-5 away; beat Portsmouth Ladies 2-1 at home. The last 5 of these are from last season.
The dugout
Every one of the 4 banked matches with a manager recorded was taken by Ash Thompson. Who picks the team today is not yet recorded this season, so a summer change of manager would not show in these figures.
Leicester City WFC -- away
Its record at the relevant venue
No away game yet this season. Last season away in the Women's Super League: won 0, drew 2, lost 9 of 11, scoring 3 and conceding 32 -- 0.18 points a game.
Its last five league matches
Newest first: lost to Everton Women 0-1 away in the Women's Super League; lost to Chelsea Women 1-3 at home in the Women's Super League; lost to Arsenal Women 0-7 away in the Women's Super League; lost to London City Lionesses 1-5 away in the Women's Super League; lost to Brighton & Hove Albion Women 0-1 at home in the Women's Super League. The last 5 of these are from last season.
The dugout
Every one of the 6 banked matches with a manager recorded was taken by Rick Passmoor. Who picks the team today is not yet recorded this season, so a summer change of manager would not show in these figures.
