Recent respective form guides

Tamworth's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Lambs have scored 6, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Forest Green Rovers's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. A generous 9 goals have been both scored and conceded in this period.

Tamworth are stuck down in the relegation zone of Blue Square (Conference) Premier with a return of just 46 points from their 45 games thus far.

Forest Green Rovers are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 46 points from 45 matches.
