League Two

Oldham sit 21st in the League Two on 8 points from 9 matches, having scored 9 and conceded 13. On the model's scale they rate 0.49 in attack and 2.06 in defence (1.00 = an average top-flight side, lower defence is better), against League Two averages of 0.50 and 2.09: close to the division's average. Across their last 5 league matches they have 1 draw and 4 defeats, most recently drawing with Accrington Stanley 0-0 at home. That is 0.89 points a match, scoring 1.00 and conceding 1.44 per game across 2 wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats. That leaves them 11 points behind Salford City at the top, in a table of 24. Among the 24 rated sides in the division that is the 10th-best attack and the 13th-best defence. They scored in 4 of those 5 and kept 3 clean sheets. Next they travel to Northampton in the League Two on 3 October 2026, a match the model gives them 33%.
