So Spread Eagle FC have played 6, drawn 2 and lost 4. They've only scored 5 goals in those 6 games and have let in 18. That sounds bad, but it's only an average of 3 goals per game conceded.

Whereas we've played 5 and conceded 4, an average of just under 1 goal per game.

So if you're interested in mathematical probability, that suggests a 3-1 or a 3-0 victory. Not exactly the drubbing that you might expect due to their situation at the bottom of their division.

That's also assuming that their division is the same level of quality as ours, which we just don't know. Could be better, could be worse.

So the moral of this post is: Ignore it and play to our best.

Don't you agree, Dancing Bear?
