Guiseley: Pre-Match Stats and Form Guide

FC Halifax Town will be looking to continue their run of form under new boss Jamie Fullarton as they take on Guiseley at the weekend.

The Shaymen go into this game following a superb comeback against Dagenham and Redbridge on Tuesday night, with Mike Fondop-Talom grabbing with winner for his first Town goal.

Halifax are now unbeaten in their last four games, picking up ten points from a possible twelve with impressive wins over Woking and the aforementioned Dagenham.

Guiseley, on the other hand, have been struggling for form all season and recently is no different.

The Lions remain rooted to the bottom of the table and have only managed to pick up one win in their last eight fixtures, albeit a rather impressive 1-0 victory over heavy hitters AFC Fylde.

Halifax’s away form as of late has also been fairly solid, with one win, two draws and a defeat in their last four, including a much needed 1-1 draw against then table toppers Wrexham.
