History of the Cheltenham Town v Hereford United fixture

Cheltenham T. play host to Hereford United at Whaddon Road on Saturday afternoon, hoping to break their duck against the visitors. Out of their two previous meetings, the Robins have drawn one game and lost the other.

The last time the two teams met at Cheltenham T. was back in March 1999, over five years ago, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a Conference match.

Recent respective form guides

Cheltenham Town have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. While Robins have scored 9, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Hereford Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the Bulls have hit 5 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Cheltenham T. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 27 games have yielded only 21 points. Hereford Utd. are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 21 points from their 27 games thus far.
