Data provided by

York City host Accrington Stanley at the LNER Community Stadium on Tuesday night, with a 7.45pm kick-off. It pits one of the division’s form home sides against a Stanley team unbeaten on their own patch but winless away.

Our York City vs Accrington Stanley predictions centre on the hosts’ home record. After all, York remain unbeaten at the LNER Community Stadium and have scored 13 goals there. Sitting fourth in League Two, they will fancy their chances of extending that run against visitors who have yet to win on the road all season. These are our best bets for the midweek clash.

Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson has picked out two bets for this one, a win-to-nil for the hosts and a contrarian corners angle for the visitors.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
York City to win to nil9/4 (bet365)York are yet to lose at the LNER Community Stadium, winning four and drawing one of their five home games this season. That record reads 13 goals scored and only four conceded, so the clean-sheet angle has real grounding. Accrington, by contrast, have failed to win any of their five away games, drawing two and losing three while managing just four goals on their travels. The hosts have already blown teams away in front of their own fans, winning 4-0 against Swindon and 3-0 against Gillingham. Therefore, a win-to-nil at better than 2/1 reflects a side scoring freely against visitors who rarely threaten away.
Accrington Stanley to have most corners4/1 (Betfred)This is a contrarian angle built on how the game is likely to flow. York are strong favourites at home and tend to control matches on their own patch. In turn, that can push the visitors onto the front foot in search of a response. Accrington have shown they can play through the lines, and a side chasing the game often racks up the corner count as crosses get blocked and shots deflected behind. At 4/1, the Betfred price offers plenty of room if Stanley spend long spells camped in the York half. Furthermore, the away corner market is one of the few places backers can find a generous number in a game they are expected to lose.

How York City go into the game

York sit fourth in League Two on 16 points from their first 10 games, a record of four wins, four draws and two defeats. They arrive on the back of a 1-1 draw at Newport County last time out. That was a second successive stalemate, after Northampton Town held them to the same score at home. Alexander Newby leads the scoring charts with six goals, with Olliver Pearce close behind on five.

Home form is where York make their case. They are unbeaten at the LNER Community Stadium, winning four and drawing one of five. Also, the goals have flowed with 13 scored and only four conceded there. The 4-0 demolition of Swindon Town and the 3-0 win over Gillingham underline how dangerous they are in front of their own supporters.

How Accrington Stanley go into the game

Accrington Stanley come into the midweek round 10th on 14 points from 11 games, their tally built on three wins and five draws against three defeats. Stanley are in decent nick, having beaten Gillingham 3-1 at home last time out. Before that, they drew 0-0 at Oldham Athletic. Josh Woods and Charlie Caton share top billing in attack on five goals apiece.

The concern for the visitors is their away form. They have yet to win on the road this season, drawing two and losing three of five while scoring just four goals in the process. That return stands in sharp contrast to their unbeaten home record. Also, a trip to an in-form York side is a stern test of whether they can finally spark into life on their travels.
