Current streaks

Recent form

Crystal Palace Women

Crystal Palace Women are currently experiencing a challenging period, sitting in 12th position in the league with just 6 points from 15 games. Their recent form has been particularly poor, with the team currently on a three-game losing streak in all competitions. In their last six matches, Palace have managed only one win, coming in the FA Women's Cup against Newcastle United Women. The team's defensive record has been a concern, conceding an average of 1.5 goals per game over this period, while their attacking output has been limited to just one goal per game. Despite the struggles, Palace have shown some resilience, with 67% of their recent matches featuring under 2.5 goals, suggesting they are keeping games relatively tight. However, the lack of clean sheets (only one in the last six) and the fact that both teams have scored in half of these matches indicate there is room for improvement at both ends of the pitch.

Aston Villa Women

Aston Villa Women are currently enduring a difficult run of form, having lost five of their last six matches across all competitions. The Villans find themselves in 11th position in the Women's Super League, struggling to find consistency in their performances. Their defensive frailties are particularly concerning, with the team conceding an average of 2.33 goals per game in their last six outings and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last seven matches. Villa's attacking output has also been lacklustre, netting just 0.83 goals per game during this period. The recent 4-2 defeat to Manchester City Women stands out as a high-scoring affair, while their sole victory came in a thrilling 3-2 FA Women's Cup win over Brighton Women. Despite their struggles, Villa have shown they can be competitive in some matches, with 50% of their recent games featuring over 2.5 goals, suggesting they are capable of contributing to entertaining encounters.

Recent home/away form

Crystal Palace Women

Crystal Palace Women have been struggling for consistency at home, with their last six matches yielding two wins and four losses. The Eagles have failed to score in three of these games, including back-to-back defeats against Tottenham Hotspur Women and Manchester United Women. However, they've shown flashes of brilliance, particularly in their FA Women's Cup tie against Sheffield United Women, which they won convincingly 6-1. This high-scoring affair stands out as their most impressive performance, contributing significantly to their average of 1.67 goals scored per game. Defensively, Palace have been relatively solid, conceding an average of 1.33 goals per game and managing one clean sheet in this period. The team's home form reflects their overall league position, currently sitting 12th in the Women's Super League with just 6 points from 15 games.

Aston Villa Women

Aston Villa Women's recent away form has been disappointing, with the team failing to secure a victory in their last six matches on the road. The Villans are currently enduring a three-game losing streak away from home, which includes a heavy 4-0 defeat to Arsenal Women in the Women's Super League. Their defensive struggles are evident, having conceded 11 goals in these six away games while managing to score only once, resulting in a concerning goal difference of -10. Despite their poor offensive output, Villa have shown some resilience defensively, keeping one clean sheet and ensuring that 67% of their away matches have ended with under 2.5 goals. However, their inability to find the back of the net consistently has contributed to their low league position, currently sitting 11th with just 10 points from 15 games.
