-0.31 points a game is the venue form gap, in Manchester City Women's favour: Charlton Athletic Ladies takes 1.77 a game at home over the last two seasons, Manchester City Women 2.08 away.
Charlton Athletic Ladies: 25 league matches in the bank, 3 from this season and the rest from last season in the Women's Championship. Manchester City Women: 25 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

The last 2 of these are from last season.
The dugout
Every one of the 8 banked matches with a manager recorded was taken by Karen Hills. Who picks the team today is not yet recorded this season, so a summer change of manager would not show in these figures.
