Three draws, one win and one defeat, with thirteen goals scored and nine conceded.

Two wins, one draw and two defeats in the spell. There are no recorded previous meetings between the two clubs, so the head-to-head adds nothing here. The prediction may change in the hours before kick-off. Confirmed line-ups, late injuries, suspensions, rotation ahead of other fixtures and the state of the pitch and the weather can all alter the picture described above. In those cases the selection may be reviewed and updated within 12 to 24 hours of the match: this happens rarely, but when it does, the version published on this page is always the current one.
