Recent respective form guides

Exeter City's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Grecians have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.

Yeovil Town's away form is none too clever either, coming away with three points on 3 occasions, but drawing 1 and losing 2. The Glovers's have scored 7 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 8.

Exeter City's 49 points from 36 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position.

Yeovil Town are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 38 points from 35 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...

Its been a distinctly poor show from Exeter City at home in recent games, and, though we cannot see a run starting here, we do think the Grecians will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
