Forest Green's equivalent sample is eight wins, five draws and seven losses, with 36 scored and 37 conceded. They thumped Chesham United 5-0 in the FA Cup but also shipped four at home to Hartlepool, so the league form has been patchier than that cup run suggests.

Yeovil look the more consistent side across the sample, even allowing for some uneven scorelines on both sides.

Comparative Team Statistics: Yeovil Town vs Forest Green

Head-to-head: an odd recent pattern

Looking at the last four league meetings, Forest Green have actually come out on top three times and drawn the other, home and away alike. That run stretches from January 2025 through to December of last year.

There's a longer history between the clubs going back to their League Two days, but that's old enough now that it doesn't really tell us much about the teams as they stand today.

Forest Green clearly know how to get something from this fixture, whatever the table currently says.

League position tells a clear story

Yeovil sit fourth with 25 points from 13 games, built on seven wins, four draws and two losses so far this season.

Forest Green are down in 16th on 15 points from 12 games, with four wins, three draws and five losses. That's already a ten-point gap between them.

Weighing it all up

Yeovil go into this as the much stronger side on paper, sitting well clear in the table and scoring freely in recent weeks. Forest Green's underlying form has been shakier, with goals conceded not far behind goals scored.

Even so, recent head-to-head meetings have leaned towards Forest Green, and that kind of pattern can matter in a fixture like this. It reads as a genuine contrast between current form and recent history, rather than a clean favourite's match.
