Chelmsford City vs AFC Totton Head to Head (H2H) stats
-
AFC Totton
2 : 1
Chelmsford City
Enterprise National League South
The current campaign is the first in which Chelmsford and AFC Totton are competing in the same division. The first H2H match between these two teams this season was in October, when AFC Totton won 2-1 at home. Chelmsford will surely have that defeat in their minds when the teams meet on Monday night at Melbourne Stadium.
Chelmsford team overview
Chelmsford have another good season. They are three points behind the promotion playoff zone and could have a very interesting next few weeks. However, Chelmsford's form is far from ideal, as they have won only two of their last six matches. In the most recent outing, Robbie Simpson's team won 1-0 on the road against Chippenham. Now, Chelmsford will welcome AFC Totton in another match in which the Clarets have to win if they want to secure surprising promotion.
Chelmsford have some problems with defense recently. They conceded six goals in the last three matches. Chelmsford clinched the clean sheet in their previous game, and the head coach, Robbie Simpson, will want his players to repeat it on Monday evening against AFC Totton, too.
Chelmsford are far from the best home team in the competition. However, they have a 5-2-1 record at Melbourne Stadium in the last eight matches, and it seems that Chelmsford's home field is becoming their fortress lately.
