Farnborough at home are leaking goals like a sieve. In their last 10 games, they've conceded 22 goals (2.20 per game). Specifically at home, that defensive leak widens to 2.40 goals conceded per match. Their offense is decent, averaging 1.60 goals scored per game. Look at their recent results: they lost 0-5 to Enfield and 2-3 to Hemel Hempstead Town. That's the kind of scoreline we live for!
