Recent respective form guides

Hereford United's home form is most definitely relegation standard, collecting just 1 solitary point from the last six. While Bulls have scored 7, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Cheltenham Town's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. A generous 13 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Hereford United are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 26 points from 28 matches.
