Current streaks

Recent form

Crystal Palace Women

Crystal Palace Women are currently experiencing a challenging run of form, sitting in 12th position in the Women's Super League with just 5 points from 9 games. Their recent results show a concerning trend, with four losses in their last six matches across all competitions. The team's defensive struggles are particularly evident, conceding an average of 2.33 goals per game over this period, while only managing to score 1.17 goals per game themselves. A notable high-scoring affair occurred in their most recent league match, a 5-2 defeat away to West Ham Women. Despite these difficulties, Palace have shown glimpses of potential, securing a clean sheet in their 2-0 victory over Charlton Athletic in the WSL Cup. However, their current form suggests they face an uphill battle to improve their league position in the coming weeks.

Manchester United Women

Manchester United Women have shown impressive form recently, winning four of their last six matches across all competitions. The Red Devils have been particularly strong defensively, keeping four clean sheets and conceding just four goals in this period. Their attack has been potent, scoring 13 goals at an average of 2.17 per game. Notably, United's most recent outing saw them secure a high-scoring 5-3 victory against Newcastle United Women in the WSL Cup, followed by a convincing 4-0 thrashing of Liverpool Women in the Women's Super League. Despite a narrow 1-0 loss to Chelsea Women, United have bounced back well, currently sitting fourth in the league table with 18 points from nine games. Their solid goal difference of +9 and the fact that both teams scored in only 17% of these matches underline their defensive resilience.

Recent home/away form

Crystal Palace Women

Crystal Palace Women have been struggling for form at home, with a concerning run of three consecutive losses in their most recent fixtures. Their home record shows only one win in their last six matches, coming against Charlton Athletic in the WSL Cup. The team have been particularly goal-shy, failing to score in four of their last six home games and managing just three goals in total during this period. Defensively, they've also faced challenges, conceding 14 goals across these six matches. The standout result, unfortunately for Palace, was a heavy 7-0 defeat to Chelsea Women in the Women's Super League, highlighting their difficulties against top-tier opposition. With 67% of their recent home games featuring under 2.5 goals, low-scoring affairs have been a trend, though this statistic is somewhat skewed by the anomalous Chelsea result.

Manchester United Women

Manchester United Women have shown mixed form away from home, with their last six away matches resulting in three wins, one draw, and two losses. The team have demonstrated defensive solidity, conceding only three goals in these six games and keeping three clean sheets. However, their attacking output has been relatively modest, scoring six goals across these matches. Notably, all of their away games in this period have been low-scoring affairs, with every match featuring under 2.5 goals. Their most recent away victory came against Leicester Women, where they secured a 2-0 win, maintaining their trend of tight encounters on the road. Despite their inconsistent results, Manchester United Women have managed to maintain a respectable 4th position in the league, accumulating 18 points from 9 games overall.
